Meleini Scott has three goals: survive high school, avoid her toxic home life, and stay as far away from Shayne Ramirez as humanly possible.
Too bad he seems to live for making her life miserable.
Ever since seventh grade, Shayne's been the thorn in her side-the nicknames, the tripping in the hallways, the smug smirk that makes her blood boil. Now, in their sophomore year, a school "conflict resolution" program forces the sworn enemies to live together in a remote cabin to finally settle their differences.
But tension this deep doesn't just disappear.
It shifts. It simmers. It changes.
With wild parties, broken rules, old grief, and a past neither of them has fully faced, Meleini and Shayne are about to learn that hate is never simple-and that love, if it's even real, is the most dangerous game of all.
They can't stand each other.
They can't stay away.
And no one knows what really happened in that cabin.
(P.S. most of the serious topics in this book are actually based on things that happened in my life/things that i've been through and i just want to share the story. PLEASE DONT STEAL MY WORK!!)
