Alex Thompson is living through her own personal hell. The only person who makes it better, if only slightly, is her step- mom; Claire, who's more of mom then her real mother could ever be.

Her dad is even worse then her mother. He's practically always gone, and when he is home, let's just say that she'd rather eat a raw dead worm . Yeah, that bad.

But she's not one to back down, even when she should. Nope, she fights back. She's strong on the inside and out... Or is she? When she gets the opportunity to leave her city and find a safer place to stay where her dad won't find her, will she take the chance? Or will she stay where she is and continue to live this mess she calls life? Yeah, the answer is pretty clear.

With new friends who teach her it's okay to be weak and cry it out at times. With a jealous bully and with her step-mom who supports her through out the way... Will she be able to sort out her messes and make it, or will she give up?

It's the last year of high school, and everything has changed . . . ***** After a summer spent in the Philippines, Lara Dela Cruz is eager to start her senior year and, most importantly, reunite with her three besties. But what she did not expect was to show up on the first day of school to all three of her friends now in relationships. Fighting for their attention, catching some new and confusing feelings for long-time frenemy James, and wading through the pressures of post-high-school plans all have Lara reeling. And to make matters worse, Lara's beautiful and untrustworthy cousin conveniently appears and wiggles her way right between her and James' budding relationship. Feeling like a third wheel in more ways than one, Lara must learn to accept that change is inevitable, love is complicated, and being the odd one out is sometimes where inner power is found.
