Sloane never played it safe. Summer nights were made for burning-bonfires on the beach, neon-lit clubs, and secrets that no one was supposed to know.
Maverick thought he owned her. Hudson wanted her. Grayson was new, dangerous, and impossible to ignore. Alex, her protective brother, would do anything to keep her safe, while Sebastian and Maddy navigated their own messy sibling bond, caught in the middle of it all.
Friendships teetered on the edge of chaos, loyalties cracked, and hearts collided in ways no one saw coming. This was a summer where love, betrayal, and secrets burned brighter than the night.

When partying turns to trouble, friendships are tested, loyalties are shaken, and the line between love and betrayal blurs.
