one. But not for the reasons they think. Cara is about to learn that not all
the scars left by the accident season are physical: There's a long-hidden

finally fall desperately in love, when she'll start discovering the painful

the accident season—whether she's ready or not.” –Amazon

creator of a best-selling graphic novel series, who has left college and come
home under mysterious circumstances, and in complete silence.” –Amazon
