Margarita "Peggy" Schuyler has always been the quiet one-the artist, the dreamer, the girl in the shadows of her older sisters, Angelica and Eliza. At just six years old, Peggy and her family moved to a new town, fleeing a dangerous stalker from her past. Now 15, Peggy lives a life of quiet creativity, pouring her heart into music she never shares and designing clothes that reflect her vibrant personality.
But Peggy's safe world begins to crumble when she realizes that Adam Sander-the boy who tormented her childhood-has found her again. Despite her phobia of him, Peggy refuses to let fear define her. With the support of her best friend, Maria, and her crush, the artistic and emo John Laurens, Peggy begins to uncover her inner strength. But as Adam's presence grows more threatening, Peggy must confront her deepest fears to protect herself and those she loves.
In a tale of love, resilience, and bravery, Peggy Schuyler learns that sometimes the quietest voices can make the loudest impact.
