Book excerpt: From the USA TODAY bestselling author of Unteachable and Black Iris comes a sexy, romantic suspense novel about two best friends who are torn apart by a life-shattering accident, and the secrets it left behind. Vada and Ellis's friendship is so intense and consuming, it's hard to tell where one girl ends and the other begins. Yet they couldn't be more different: Ellis is nerdy, shy, and rich; Vada is an ambitious artist struggling to make ends meet. When Vada gets into an elite New England art college, Ellis comes along for the ride. Like always. They can face anything in the world as long as they're together ... Until a horrifying accident tears them apart. Life goes on, and Ellis handles it just fine on her own, but Vada is deeply scarred--emotionally and physically. Her once-promising career as an artist is cut short by her injuries. Broke and severed from doing what she loves, she meets the wrong guy at the right time: Dane, a smooth-talking lothario, who offers her a new career as a cam girl. All Vada has to do is spend a couple hours each night taking off her clothes in front of a webcam, and the tips come pouring in. Things get complicated when a client who calls himself Blue gets possessive. Through the safety of the cam, they open up to each other intimately. Vada finally talks about the accident. Blue helps her heal. And he pays well, but he wants her all to himself. No more cam shows. He's a mystery, and she might be falling for him, so Vada demands something in return: to meet in real life. Blue agrees, on one condition: she has to bring Ellis. The girl who wants nothing to do with her anymore. Now Vada is forced to confront the past she's been running from. A past full of devastating secrets--those of others, and those she's been keeping from herself ...
