Savannah St. James knows how this story is supposed to go. The star quarterback falls for the quiet, bookish girl, leaving his blonde, cheerleading girlfriend behind.
When she catches her boyfriend, Jason, cheating with Emily Hayes, she does the reasonable thing: dumps him on the spot. But the next day, Jason spreads a rumor that Savannah was the cheater, not him. While Savannah becomes a social pariah, Emily and Jason get to have their happily-ever-after.
Except Savannah isn't interested in being anyone's cliché. So, in a moment of blind, drunken rage, she kills Jason.
It wasn't exactly part of the plan, but now Jason is dead, homecoming is short one quarterback, and Savannah has a very big problem on her hands.
Revenge is one thing.
Getting away with murder? That's a whole new game.
