With so many secrets to hide and lies to keep up with, it would be easier to keep her head down and wait for this all to be over so she can return home, and that's exactly what would have happened if it wasn't for the emerald green eyes of Chet Raven. Twenty-six years old and with a million of his own secrets to hide, Chet is set to become Amity's first meaningful relationship in town, opening her up to the idea of how good things can be when you allow yourself to be vulnerable, and make new friendships. But not all is as it seems, and secrets always have a way of coming out. Lines are crossed, rules broken, rivals come face to face and families are left in chaos. Strap yourself in for a emotional roller coaster ride of ups and downs, trials and growth and love and heartbreak.

Complete! Joshua Manfred is untouchable. He turns down every confession of love (or lust) and puts a quick stop to every fight, earning him the nickname Peacemaker. He is calm, cool, and always in control. I, on the other hand, am a mess. People think I'm smart because I'm quiet and I read, a lot. But I am disorganized, always hungry, and I have almost no friends, mostly because I would rather read than talk to people. I am the last person someone like Joshua would think about. Enter the group project. Most dreaded of all assignments. Will my heart survive a week working with the most wanted guy in school? Probably not, but it could be worse.
