She loves him. He loathes her, and rightfully so. Not even time heals wounds this jagged and misaligned.
Eighteen-year-old Joey Partridge doesn't do conflict. Negative tension stresses her out. Yelling sends her verbally vomiting every thought in her head and bursting into tears. Which, as a normally confident, world-wise daughter of globetrotting dragon scientists, is just embarrassing.
It also wrecked her relationship with drummer-boy Slade Adler, her best friend and romantic addiction. A year ago, she publicly fell apart, blamed Slade for something he didn't do, and destroyed his future plans and their relationship.
Now all dragon scientists have been called to Newfoundland to study an incubating dragon egg. Slade will be there, and he's not shy about making it clear how much he hates her. Joey's best option?
Avoid him at all costs.
Only weird things are going on in Newfoundland. Shady figures keep sabotaging the scientists and sneaking into the cove holding the egg. When a local magic-handler convinces Joey to help investigate, her first clue points a little too close to...Slade.
No way will Joey risk getting him into trouble again. Not when deep inside she still wants him back. Joey must solve the mystery, protect the egg and Slade, and convince him to forgive her for her past mistakes. All while avoiding any sign of conflict.
She is so screwed.
