“I picked up this book and thought, 'Oh, please save us from another typical high school romance story' and that is exactly what Katie McGarry has done. Told from the alternating perspectives of Echo -- a girl with physical and emotional scars bespeaking a past she cannot remember -- and Noah -- a self-important fringe-walking bad boy who doesn't need anyone -- this novel is expertly crafted and wholly believable. Sophisticated teens rejoice! Here's the number-one book on your summer 'must read' list!”
— Andrea Greenlee, Page One Bookstore, Albuquerque, NM

RPT No change for outside, new inside

So wrong for each other...AND YET SO RIGHT.

No one knows what happened the night Echo Emerson went from popular girl with jock boyfriend to gossiped-about outsider with "freaky" scars on her arms. Even Echo can't remember the whole truth.

But when Noah Hutchins, the smoking-hot, girl-using loner in the black leather jacket, explodes into her life with his surprising understanding, Echo's world shifts in ways she could never have imagined. They should have nothing in common.

Yet the crazy attraction between them refuses to go away. And Echo has to ask herself just how far they can PUSH THE LIMITS and what she'll risk for the one guy who might teach her HOW TO LOVE AGAIN.

"McGarry details the sexy highs, the devastating lows, and the real work it takes to build true love." --Jennifer Echols, author of Such a Rush.
