Regina Afton used to be a member of the <i>Fearsome Fivesome</i>, an all-girl clique both feared and revered by the students at Hallowell High... until vicious rumors about her and her best friend's boyfriend start going around. <p/>Now Regina's been frozen out and her ex-best friends are out for revenge. If Regina was guilty, it would be one thing, but the rumors are far from the terrifying truth and the bullying is getting more intense by the day. She takes solace in the company of Michael Hayden, a misfit with a tragic past who she herself used to bully. Friendship doesn't come easily for these onetime enemies, and as Regina works hard to make amends for her past, she realizes Michael could be <i>more</i> than just a friend... if threats from the <i>Fearsome Foursome</i> don't break them both first. <p/>Tensions grow and the abuse worsens as the final days of senior year march toward an explosive conclusion. <p/>"This story takes an unflinching look at the intricacies of high school relationships ....
