Decisiveness was her best quality . . .
Pearl Blakely has never been faced with a decision she can't make-or a situation she can't wind around her little finger. And that's not going to change now, not while she's in her senior year with her best friend Sonny and her twin Archie, and definitely not because a new boy has rocked up at school.
Barney Young likes to observe, and he's learned the hard way that things aren't always how they seem. But, with his fresh start on the line, he can't afford to get caught in the same cycle he did last year.
Observation uncovers secrets that no one knows they're keeping. And, sometimes, friends aren't only friends.

Beneath the surface
Ivy Morris looks perfect from the outside. A straight-A student. A dedicated ballet and competition dancer. Quiet, composed, untouchable. But perfection is just a performance. After her mother's death, Ivy's home becomes something she survives instead of returns to. With a controlling, abusive and alcoholic father she hides behind practiced smiles, Ivy learns how to stay silent. The only person who truly sees her is her older brother, Lucas. Then there's Bennett. Soccer player. Sharp tongue. Constant irritation. They're enemies by circumstance, by misunderstanding - until they aren't. At sixteen, both carrying more than they let on, Ivy and Bennett are forced closer than either of them wants. And somewhere between late nights, broken walls, and quiet confessions, enemies begin to soften. Because sometimes the people who seem the strongest are the most fragile - and sometimes love starts where you least expect it.
