Moira Anderson, like every other 16-years old New Yorker hapless enough to have ended up born in the wrong place at the wrong time, got caught up in a covenant that dictates each and every teenager under said category to take the Fate test and find out their predestinations in their lives. The Founders of this decision claim that this puts adolescents at a great advantage: finding out about their fate and preparing for it in advance. After taking her Fate result from within the grasps of the Techno Seer, the machine that reads teenagers' minds to create a verse-long outline of their period of existence, Moira suspects that the Founders strive for more than just a better world. So, with the help of her friends, she goes to great lengths to unravel the mystery that she and others like her have fallen victims for.

Not the best friend who became her first kiss... her first love... her everything. But when he moved across the world, he left her with nothing but a broken promise and a gold star necklace she still wears like a scar. She swore she'd wait. He swore they'd find each other again. But two weeks after he came back, he was holding another girl's hand. Now it's war. And Lisa's done playing soft. Noah thought leaving Lisa behind would protect them both. He didn't expect to fall apart without her. Neither did he expect to learn the truth-something so brutal it made him question every moment they'd ever shared and see her as a stranger in the skin of the girl he once loved. And he definitely didn't expect to fall into someone else's arms trying to forget the taste of her lips. But Lisa's not the shy girl he left behind. She's colder now. Hotter, too. And every time he looks at her like he hates her, he wants to grab her and make her remember everything. This isn't just a breakup. It's unfinished business. First love never dies. But it might just destroy them both.
