Hailee Raine only has to survive one more year. One year of life in her football obsessed town. One year of nauseating school spirit. Just one more year of her cruel step-brother Jason; and his cocky, arrogant, football-playing friends. She hates them. Especially, Cameron Chase, the guy she thought was different. Cameron Chase has the world at his feet. He has it all; good looks, talent, and the charm to go with it. He has colleges lined up at the door, all wanting a piece of Rixon Raiders star wide receiver.

I’m the smart girl with my nose constantly in a book. The one with the level head who never breaks the rules…until I do. And wouldn’t you know, the one person who knows about my case of temporary rebellion is the last one I’d ever want to find out.

Nico Medina's world is 11 miles away from mine. During the day, it's a place where doors are open - where homes are lived in, and neighbors love. But when the sun sets, it becomes a place where young boys are afraid, where eyes watch from idling cars that hide in the shadows and wicked smoke flows from pipes. West End is the kind of place that people survive. It buries them - one at a time, one way or another. And when Nico was a little boy, his mom always told him to run.

He needed a place to hide. She needed a friend. They never expected to fall in love. After a car accident - an event he considers a prank gone bad - jaded pop star Hunter Kennedy is forced to hide out with his aunt in small-town Colorado. He's supposed to rest, heal his scars, and attend high school in disguise until the press dies down. But he only wants to get back to work.

At a freshman party she doesn't remember, Jess Jordan was almost raped. Almost. Very nearly. Not quite. Three years later Jess has managed to make everyone believe she's better. Over it. Because she is...almost. Very nearly. Not quite.

Ellen thinks she has everything she wants. Her summer program couldn't be better. She's half in love with Harrison Shaw, and she's going after her next scholarship. But when she kisses Harrison, she can only remember how Cam Campbell used kiss her better, sweeter, and how he used to make her feel like she could fly....

What if you kiss? What if you kiss Ellen Foster and it's perfect enough to make you believe in things you shouldn't? You tell her secrets and share your dreams. You make the kinds of promises and create plans to be together that might be impossible to keep when you're only 16, and your parents control your entire future, but…. What if you hurt her?
