When Scarlett Royston relocates to a new school for the 4th time that year, she just wants to get past the rest of the year unnoticed. After she finishes school, she can finally go and help her family in the war- or at least, what's left of her family. She desperately wants to help them... But she has her orders: stay low, make sure the enemy doesn't find you. The only thing making Scarlett follow the orders are her mother's second-to-last words to her, forever drilled into her head. "We need you to be safe. You're our last hope." Scarlett tries to escape her dark past that plagues her every night... but after meeting her future-best-friend by getting knocked over by her car, and crashing into the school's biggest jerk, she realizes that high school might be a bigger deal than she expected. As her life gets hopelessly knotted, tangled between a possible relationship, her friends, her family, and her frustration from not being able to help in the war, Scarlett soon finds herself needing to make a decision, one that could change everything. **Note: There will be swearing. **Note #2: The background image for the cover is from: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/82/1c/31/821c31a381a133810fe9d5bf15836c74.jpg
