A compulsively listenable story that celebrates the awkward complexity of teenage relationships - with their families and with each other, from the New York Times best-selling author of The Descendants.
Annie Tripp has everything she needs - Italian sweaters, vintage chandelier earrings, and elite ice skating lessons - but all that changes when her father is accused of scamming hundreds of people out of their investments. Annie knows her dad wasn't at fault, but she and her brother are exiled to their estranged aunt and uncle's house in a run-down part of Breckenridge - until the trial blows over.
Life with her new family isn't quite up to Annie's usual standard of living, but surprisingly, pretending to be someone else offers a freedom she's never known. As Annie starts to make real friends for the first time, she realizes she has more in common with her aunt and uncle than she ever wanted to know. As the family's lies begin to crumble and truths demand consequences, Annie must decide which secrets need to see the light of day...and which are worth keeping.
Genre: Young Adult Romance
