Book One, Part Two
June White realizes that everything she thought she knew about her new friends was wrong. After moving to California, she discovers the hallways of her high school hide lies and appearances are worse than deceiving. The only person she can really trust is the one person she never thought she would: the brooding but sexy James Hunter. And as they grow closer, June’s heartbreak over William fades.
For the first time, James talks to June openly and honestly, and without any desire to drive her away. Even as the truth emerges and William continues to battle his demons, June is still torn. Did James try to keep her and William apart to protect her, as he claims? Or are his feelings for her more than he can admit? Eventually, it’s up to June to choose—William or James.
But as James and June draw ever closer, even more secrets about James’s past are revealed, including one that could destroy the fragile happiness they are creating
