Betrayal.  Blackmail.  Revenge. How is it that those three words now rule my life? From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Sucevic comes the next sexy novel in the Hawthorne Prep Series. Welcome to the world of Hawthorne Prep.  A seemingly idyllic school where ivy clings to the thick stone walls and a wrought iron gate keeps out the townies who can't afford to foot the hefty price tag. Except...I'm one of those townies. I don't belong here. Most of the time, I feel like an outsider with her face smashed against a windowpane while staring inside.  It's a lonely feeling.  One I've gotten used to.  There are times when I secretly wonder if I'll make it through senior year intact. But then someone comes along and turns my world upside down and inside out.  He makes me feel things I never dreamed possible.  There's a possessiveness to the way he watches me, and it sets my nerves on edge. Especially when it's in front of my boyfriend. The one I desperately want to break up with. The very same one who will make my life hell if I try to pull the plug. Steering clear of Austin Hawthorne is my only option.  A little attempt at self-preservation.  For both our sakes. One night changes everything between us and has me believing in the possibility of something more. Just as swiftly as I'm given hope, it all comes crashing down around my head, making me a pawn in a game between two boys who will stop at nothing to take each other down.
