YA
After watching her mother's powerful drug dealer commit a murder, seventeen-year-old Stella reluctantly enters the Witness Protection Program. Stella resists assimilating to her temporary home in rural Nebraska, but healthy new relationships with locals put the dysfunction of her former life into perspective. Slowly revealed secrets lead to an action-packed ending, but the book is ultimately an unchallenging contemporary romance.
