Jade has always been good at disappearing-into shadows, into silence, into the haze of her past struggles. Fresh out of rehab and back at school, she hides from the cruel stares and whispered judgments by retreating to a dark, broken janitor's closet at lunch. It's her only refuge...until someone else slips inside.
Devin is everything Jade isn't-popular, confident, a senior with secrets of his own. But in the pitch-black room where neither of them can see the other, appearances don't matter. They trade fake names, whispered stories, and guarded laughter. In the dark, they can be anyone. In the dark, they can finally breathe.

But light has a way of breaking through. When Jade's mother suddenly gets engaged-to the father of Devin's best friend-Jade and Devin's lives collide in ways neither could have imagined. As Jade adjusts to a new home with tangled loyalties and unspoken tensions, Devin battles the return of his abusive uncle, whose presence carries a dangerous agenda.

Bound by secrets, haunted by pasts, and tangled in family ties, Jade and Devin must decide if the fragile connection they built in the dark can survive the truth that waits in the light.

Cold Sweat is a story of the terrifying beauty of being seen.
