About this ebook
Two teens in different cities have never met but both have something to hide as their secrets and missteps blaze out of control—burning everything and everyone in the way.
“A compulsive page-turner with a shocking twist—get ready to stay up all night!”—Sara Shepard, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Pretty Little Liars
Elyse is shocked when she’s cast as the lead in her Portland high school’s production of Romeo and Juliet. Her best friend is usually the star, and quiet, shy Elyse isn’t sure she’s up to the task. That is, until she catches someone’s eye at rehearsals—someone she knows she should never be with. But never say never . . .
In Austin, Texas, Gabe is contemplating the unthinkable—breaking up with Sasha, his impulsive, popular girlfriend. She’s always had a fiery temper, so she’s not going to let him slip through her fingers, even if it means destroying him.
Told in parallel narratives, this twisty, shocking story shows how one bad choice can lead to a spiral of unforeseen consequences that not everyone will survive.
