Lena Miller is stuck in a gang against her own will.
With no way to escape, she sighs and accepts the fact that her life sucks. She sticks up her chin, holds her head up high and walks into the gates of Sunny Coast High School, leaving behind the dark trail that follows her the second she steps past the gates.
Isolating herself from everyone around her, worried that they will get caught up in her dangerous background, Lena walks through school protecting the students from her destructive aura, knowing that she'll only ruin their lives.
But what if someone, like Ryder Everhart, dismisses her desperate pleas for him to stay away from her and instead persists to get to know her, blind to the reason behind her actions.
Will she give in to the temptation of learning what happiness and joy feels like? And if so, will she be able to protect him from her dark secrets forever? Or will he crumble up her wall so far that he finds out for himself...

When her plans of leaving suddenly change, and she is forced to start attending the local school, her life takes a route that she hadn't accounted for.
