Why Read This?The one-sentence sell. What do you get for showing up to this book, even when it's hard?

Addictive high school drama that perfectly captures the intensity of teenage emotions and social hierarchies. Mason Kade is the ultimate book boyfriend - protective, loyal, and swoon-worthy.

Synopsis

Alternate cover edition of ASIN B009ZOZP0W Mason and Logan Kade are two brothers who did their own thing. They were rich and expected to attend her school, Fallen Crest Academy. They chose public school and now Samantha has to live with them. The problem is that she doesn't care at all: about them, about her friends, about her cheating boyfriend, or even about her parent's divorce. But maybe that's a good thing. Maybe change is a good thing.
