What do you do when your smart, handsome, well-liked step brother and two of his friends force you to have sex with them in your own bedroom? Do you tell? And what if no one believes you? Or worse yet, what if the adults and even the friends that you count on think that it's somehow your fault? Sixteen-year-old Molly Kerrigan has a horrible secret, one so painful that she tries her hardest to forget it. Starting over at a new school, she does all she can to remain anonymous. But a well-meaning social worker hoping to help Molly come to terms with her troubled past, forces her to participate in an every-other-day lunch group. It is here that she meets Ali, who is figuring out her own sexuality, Trinity, so neglected at home that she seeks solace in the arms of older men, Rubi, a Mexican immigrant with her hands full, between her dying mama and younger, special needs sister, and Layla, the richest, most beautiful, and most manipulative girl in the school. Molly also draws the attention of charming soccer player, Noah Nazarian, after he sees her accidentally defending his freshman brother from bullies on the first day of school. Desperate to be left alone, Molly invents a pretend boyfriend. The only problem is that he ends up being not so pretend, and now Molly finds herself as one half of a fake relationship that is the obsession of the most popular clique at school.Complete

She wrapped her arms around my waist and pulled me closer, so our fronts were now pressed together. She leaned down to my ear and asked, "Do you want me to take care of you or not?" "Yes," I whispered, and with that she leaned down to press our lips together, kissing me as her tongue slipped past my lips. My arms moved around her neck as I pulled her further down into me, deepening the kiss. She moved me until my back was pressed up against the sink. *** Mia is entering her last year of school when she hooks up with a stranger one fateful evening, who ends up being involved in her life in more ways than one. When Mia discovers the stranger is now her teacher, it sparks a clandestine relationship filled with unspoken desires and moral complexities.
