"What do you mean?" Taylor asked nervously. She had a feeling she knew the answer,but she didn't want to believe it, not until Zoe said the words.
Zoe chuckled. "I think you know what I mean," she said. She pointed Taylor to one of the mirrors that lined the room and stood behind her. "Look, Taylor, what do you see?"
For a moment, Taylor thought she saw only herself in the reflection but that couldn't have been possible. She blinked again and saw Zoe standing behind her, and she breathed. "I see us, the both of us," Taylor said more confidently.
"Taylor, which one of us is the good girl here?" Zoe asked.
"You said that there's no good or bad between us," Taylor said.
"I know, but judging from a third point of view, which of us would be the good girl?" Zoe asked. She smiled at Taylor, her red lips curving in anticipation.
"I guess..." Taylor started. "I guess I would," she answered.
"You're a smart kid, Taylor, but this time, sadly, you're wrong. You're the bad girl who does bad things, while I'm the good girl who has to clean your mess. Every. Single. Time," Zoe sneered.

For Taylor, no one has been there for her more than Zoe. From the time she lost her sister to her parents' divorce, Zoe has been her one constant column of support. Zoe helps Taylor get in and out of trouble and when Taylor did something she couldn't take back, Zoe helped her cover her tracks. But Taylor wasn't ready for the repurcussions of the accident, and when authorities came knocking, she learnt the hard way that not everyone can get away with murder.
An angel and a rebel. A scholarship girl and a playgirl. When their worlds collide, sparks fly-and nothing will ever be the same.
When Enid Jones-straight-A student and the perfect Islamic daughter-earns a scholarship to the prestigious Montrose Academy, she believes her life is finally falling into place. Her plan is simple: keep her head down, ace her classes, secure a scholarship to Yale, work a side job, and one day gain full custody of her younger sister from their abusive father.
But trouble has other plans for Enid... and its name is Olivia Grayson.
Carefree, rebellious, and notorious for breaking hearts, Olivia is Montrose Academy's golden girl. With her comes the infamous Golden Four, and a whirlwind of chaos Enid wants no part of. At least, that's what she tells herself.
Because Olivia isn't just interested in Enid-she's made it her mission to strip away the saintly image everyone sees and uncover the fire hidden beneath.
But what if it's Olivia's carefully crafted "bad girl" façade that begins to crumble first... all because of a certain brunette who was never supposed to matter?

"After what you and your stupid friends did to me, isn't it enough? Do you really have to rub it in my face?" I snapped, my voice shaking with fury.
Olivia just smirked, stepping closer until her warm minty breath fanned against my lips. My pulse went wild, betraying me.
"I'm only just getting started, angel," she whispered in that husky voice of hers. "And I'll stop... the moment I hear you moan my name."

An angel and a rebel. A scholarship girl and a playgirl. Can love survive when it's least expected-or will it destroy them both?
