"Noelle's journey from victim to victor . . . is an important story for anyone who has felt the sting of their peers' cruelty."-VOYA
"Emotionally satisfying from beginning to end."-Kirkus Reviews
Noelle's life is all about survival. Even her best friend doesn't know how much she gets bullied, or the ways her mom neglects her. Noelle's kept so much about her life a secret for so long that when her longtime crush Julian Porter starts paying attention to her, she's terrified. Surely it's safer to stay hidden than to risk the pain of a broken heart. But when the antagonism of her classmates takes a dramatic turn, Noelle realizes it's time to stand up for herself-and for the love that keeps her holding on.
