All Timberlyn wants is to get out of her small town, where she's branded a freak just because she happens to wear all black and draw gruesome monsters in her notebooks. When a letter arrives saying she's been accepted to the mysterious Ravenwood Academy for the Exceptionally Gifted, she jumps at the chance. Never mind that she's not sure what she's supposedly gifted at, or the fact that she doesn't remember actually applying there. When she arrives, the school seems like a dream full of beautiful people ready to befriend her. There's only one problem with Ravenwood: it's run by the Wolf brothers, three surly, thuggish, insanely gorgeous guys. Timberlyn's new friends give strict instructions to stay far away from them. Unfortunately, she's not good at taking orders. When girls at the school begin disappearing, Timberlyn refuses to maintain the status quo. She's sure the Wolf boys are up to something, and if she has to, she'll take them down herself. That is, if they don't take her down first.

Timberlyn is determined to get answers when she returns for her sophomore year at Ravenwood Academy for the Exceptionally Gifted. After a brutal attack at the end of her freshman year leaves her questioning her very nature, she sets out to find the truth about Ravenwood and the students who walk the academy’s halls. One thing’s for sure—nothing at Ravenwood is as it seems. When she arrives on campus, she learns that she has a new roommate who’s supposedly just like her, and a new class that promises answers to her questions. And then there’s the more personal question of whether or not she can trust Alarick Wolf. She gets the answer to that question soon enough, but no one else seems eager to share their secrets. That’s never stopped her before, and it’s not stopping her now. Timberlyn knows there is more to the story than she’s getting. Delilah haunts her dreams, and even though her friends tell her to leave well enough alone, that’s not Timberlyn’s style. Nothing can stop her from finding the truth—about Delilah, about the school, and about herself. Nothing can stop her, that is, except the truth itself.

Timberlyn's future is uncertain as she's torn between her new identity and her old, her friends and the Wolf boys. Armed with the knowledge of who she really is and what the supernaturals have planned for humanity, she must reconcile the pieces of her life if she wants to fight back... and win.
