⚠️NEW STORY⚠️
When sixteen-year-old Lena Ross is yanked from Portland and dropped into the small, secretive town of Eastlake with no warning and zero answers from her dad, the last thing she wants is to stand out. But showing up mid-year at a new high school paints a target on her back-and the whispers start before she even finds her locker.
Then there's Theo Ramirez: the frustratingly hot next-door neighbor who was charming on the porch, but cold and cruel inside the school walls. One minute he's helping her feel less alone, the next he's leading the charge to make her life hell. Everyone knows something about Lena that she doesn't. And Theo? He's at the center of it.
With rumors swirling, secrets tightening, and trust in short supply, Lena must figure out why her dad moved them here, what Theo's hiding, and what the hell everyone in Eastlake thinks they know about her-before it all explodes.
