Chris e Maia si incontrano una prima volta dopo un quasi incidente (il che non si può certo definire un buon inizio) e anche la seconda non è proprio un granché. Ma abitando per tutta l'estate uno accanto all'altra, quasi inevitabilmente finiscono per frequentarsi e, giorno dopo giorno, imparano a conoscersi, diventando via via più intimi.

Perché, se potesse, farebbe tutto diversamente: ignorerebbe il modo in cui lui la guardava, non riderebbe alle sue battute. E sicuramente chiuderebbe a chiave la porta della camera da letto. Ma Eden non può tornare indietro nel tempo, non può impedire che il migliore amico di suo fratello abusi di lei, e così seppellisce la verità, insieme alla semplice ragazza del liceo che era. Finge di non aver bisogno degli amici, di non aver bisogno dell'amore, di non aver bisogno che venga fatta giustizia.

I've hated Theo Thompson ever since he crashed my twenty-first birthday and gave me a lap dance. Now I'm stuck in a cabin with the obnoxiously hot pro hockey player for the next two months.
