Lila doesn't mean to live dangerously - it just keeps finding her.
What begins as wild nights and harmless dares turns into something deeper when Noah, the mysterious older boy with quiet eyes and a past that won't stay buried, starts appearing everywhere she goes.
He's magnetic. Infuriating. Impossible to ignore.
And behind his calm, there's something darker - something tied to the secretive group he runs with, and the strangers who keep showing up when the music fades.
As summer spins into chaos, Lila is pulled between loyalty and longing, thrill and fear.
Every moment with Noah feels like falling - and she's not sure if he'll catch her, or let her hit the ground.
