Aspen Wellington is whirling through life with the help of alcohol and one-night stands until she meets Remington Stone, a girl from the other side of the tracks. Somehow, Remington sees behind all Aspen's defenses, leading her on an unexpected journey of self-discovery. Remington is a badass, with a father in prison and a mother working two jobs. Aspen, a spoiled, popular cheerleader, isn't her type at all. Remington doesn't want to like her, but she can't seem to stop. Denna Ashford and Raleigh Hunter are Aspen's best friends. Denna is quick-witted but has temper issues. Raleigh is a genius with a difficult past who excels in everything. They're in love, but that doesn't mean their relationship is always perfect. On the cusp between high school and adulthood, all four face challenges in life and romance that they never expect. Each is dangerous without the love and loyalty that holds them together, but their love for each other just might be the thing to save them all.
