in which a beautiful mess...

...meets her savior

EXTENDED INFO

Sometimes, home is where you make it.

Saylor Stanley isn't exactly the girl next door, nor is she little miss innocent either. When the hell-raising seventeen-year-old drives her mother and stepfather past their last screw, she is exiled to go live with the father she's never known in middle of nowhere, Georgia, USA. New town. Fresh start. What's a troubled girl to do? The first thing on Saylor's list is to find mayhem, but the residents of Meadow Grove have other plans in store for her.

     Like Dreux St. Julien, the local golden boy who everyone seems to love. He's a saint, popular, gorgeous, athletic—and he's so not Saylor's type. When the two clash, tempers aren't the only thing that flares, for these two, feelings may also be about to set sail.

Although with a lot of bottled up anger towards the world and everyone in it, Saylor's on a path of self-destruction and it's only a matter of time before she sinks or swims.
