As a teenager, Maddy Harvey was a bit of an ugly duckling, what with her National Health Service glasses, unfortunate hair, and wonky teeth. Thankfully, shes blossomed since then. But when she meets Kerr McKinnon one summers night and discovers, days later, who he really is well, thats when the real problems start. Because everyone in Ashcombe knows what happened eleven years ago, and as far as her mother Marcella is concerned, she would rather tear that family to pieces with her bare hands than see Maddy associate with a McKinnon. And, okay, maybe Marcella isnt her real mother, but Maddy owes her so much. Its Romeo and Juliet all over again. Quick, hide those sharp knives and that little bottle of poison
