Three years ago, Heather Summers ruined Milla Daniels’ life and left town without a word, leaving Milla to cope with her parents’ messy divorce on her own. Now, all Milla wants is to get away and never think about her ex-best friend again. Her ticket out? The students working abroad program. With only a few months left to finish her application and get accepted, Milla is ready to put the past behind her until she sees a familiar car in her neighbor’s driveway. Heather’s back, and she has unfinished business. Desperate to stop her lies from unraveling and rumors spreading, Milla agrees to go out with heartthrob and football star Griffin Owens, even if it means dealing with his toxic ex. But with her parents spiraling, Griffin’s ex tormenting, and her unresolved feelings for Heather, Milla’s life begins to implode, and the application deadline is almost here. She needs to get a grip on things fast, or she’ll remain stuck in her hometown for another year. Which is the last thing she wants—especially when she finds out what really happened three years ago.
