"Hold still. It hurts less when you're worry-free. In fact, when you don't worry, there is no pain. Ever. Remember that."

Baker and his mother live a nomadic lifestyle, constantly moving from one town to the next. Until they settle in Long Lake, Georgia where Baker becomes friends with Seb. Their lives soon change when they meet Cassandra, a mysterious girl with a penchant for trouble. One who has captured Baker's heart and is leading him down a dark path.

Lutzke and Meyer weaved together a beautiful coming of age story. What started as newfound friendships soon turned into one of obsession, love, and blood. The characters were well developed as the reader got to know Baker, Seb, and Cass. Baker was my favourite, just a sweet boy looking to fit into a normal life, but ended up going down the wrong path due to love.

And that twist? I definitely did not see that coming! I was wondering what everything was leading up to based on the titles of the chapters. It was wild and bloody.

Overall, a great collaboration and a great coming of age tale.
