Summary:

Celeste Bergstein moves to a small town in Montana to escape her past, only to become embroiled in her new home town's twisted secrets when the school's star athlete--who is also the subject of Celeste's writings--is found dead at the mouth of a cave.

When Celeste moves to Montana from Montreal, the only friend she makes is Vivvy, the heir to the town's name and a social pariah. Inspired by a passion-fueled school incident, they begin writing a love-story fan fic between the popular guy and the school stoner, one that gradually reveals Celeste's past. While their bond makes Celeste feel safe and alive again, Vivvy keeps prodding Celeste to turn fantasy into reality. When they finally try, one drunken night on a dark mountainside, Celeste is the one who ends up kissing golden boy Joss... and he ends up dead. Celeste doesn't remember the end of that night. Did she deliver the killing blow? Could she still be that scared of getting close to a boy? Celeste learns he had his own dark secrets, as does Vivvy. The town isn't as innocent as it appears. -- adapted from jacket
