After facing the fact that her mom may never come back to her, her brother or their dad, seventeen-year-old Evanna Smith realizes that she just has to manage to make it out of high school. That is, until the boy who she had been close with, Joe Demaro, comes back after a year of almost not seeing him. Evanna Smith learns information that could make her or break her. And she doesnβt know if she will even be able to face the truth. 
Seventeen-year-old Joe Demaro, who is a handsome, nice, yet troubled boy, has had a troubled past. Especially after being in jail and now coming back to the town he was raised in. He faces the noticeable glances in the hallways as he tries to rebuild his life back together. He has secrets of his own, and he is trying to face the challenges that are brought with those secrets. Is he willing to share those secrets, or let it backfire against him?

Growing up in a toxic environment, sixteen-year-old Jay Foster has always had psychological problems, coupled with a quick temper. But one night something happens which finally pushes him over the edge, and as a result, he leaves his house the next morning with two things: his mother's gun and a plan. Living with a neglectful and drug addicted mother wasn't easy for Jay, and it definitely didn't help that his father abandoned the family while he was still a child. He harbored a hatred toward his parents, and that hatred extended to almost everyone and everything around him, producing a very troubled and damaged young kid. As Jay enters high school, he becomes very intrigued with one of his classmates. Kind of obsessed, actually. Her name: Mikayla Keeler. Mikayla is very unique, and like Jay, she doesn't seem to fit in with her contemporaries. Instead, the two of them keep each other company, and their friendship very quickly escalates into a romantic and intimate relationship. Despite having Mikayla, Jay's troubles continue to burden him. He and Mikayla are fighting habitually, his home life is still unbearable, and his time at school is hardly any better, made worse by a bully named Calvin. Their mutual dislike of one another leads to a lot of hostility, routinely leading to Jay being sent to his school's principal. One confrontation in particular goes much too far, resulting in Jay's expulsion from school. With everything seemingly piling up, Jay is very close to his breaking point, and late one night he is blindsided by the unthinkable, pushing him much too far and effectively planting in his mind a cruel and horrific plan for revenge.Complete
