¿Existen las segundas oportunidades?
Una boda frustrada. Un cálido reencuentro. Esta es la historia de Alex y Emma.
Junto a sus dos mejores amigas, Emma deja atrás la ciudad de Nueva York y viaja a California con el firme propósito de pasar las vacaciones con un cóctel en la mano, bajo el sol, en las cálidas playas de la costa. Un plan perfecto. O al menos lo fue hasta que se encontró con Alex, el chico que no solo le rompió el corazón sino que, además, la dejó plantada una semana antes de subir al altar para darse el «sí, quiero».
Por desgracia, Alex sigue siendo irresistible. Y, aunque Emma siente debilidad por su mirada azul y su sonrisa canalla, no está dispuesta a volver a caer en sus redes. Todo quedó atrás. Él quedó atrás. Así es como deben ser las cosas. El problema es que «querer» no siempre es suficiente y a veces hay recuerdos que pesan demasiado.

A dead teacher at an elite boarding school. Four students who had every reason to want her gone. Who is the monster?
At an elite New England boarding school, eight students are selected for an exclusive storytelling workshop with the one and only Meredith Graffam—an enigmatic writer, director, and actress. For sixteen days, they will live in the isolated estate of the school’s founder, surrounded by snowy woods and a storm-tossed seas. Only one of the chosen will walk away with a lifechanging opportunity to realize their creative dreams.
Everyone, including Graffam, has a compelling reason to be there—Effy, the orphan, Isaac, the legacy, Ness, the wallflower, Ramon, the outsider, and Arlo, whose unexpected arrival leaves Effy spiraling—but only the most ambitious will last the term. Graffam’s unorthodox methods push the students past the breaking point, revealing their darkest secrets, taking unthinkable risks, and slowly starting to turn on one another. But Graffam never expected they would turn on her . . .
Chloe Roberts is on top of the world. After a stellar first year at the prestigious Morton Academy, she’s a shoo-in for Head Girl and a coveted position in the school’s secret society, Jewel and Bone. But her dreams are shattered when her best friend, Nikhita Patel, unfairly snatches the top spot—and steals Chloe’s boyfriend at the same time.
Heartbroken and humiliated, Chloe discovers a shocking truth: Jewel and Bone isn’t as secret as she thought. The rest of the school despises the Jewels, and there’s even a “Book of Crime and Punishment” cataloging their misdeeds. Things take a very dark turn when the names in the book start to correlate with murders of Jewel and Bone members on campus. Suddenly, anyone could be a suspect.
