YA
Sixteen-year-old Parker, known as an ice princess, slides uneasily into her new role as a bad girl after her parents catch her in a kinky sex act. An old friend with a grudge runs a smear campaign against Parker, spurring her to cut school, commit blackmail, and lose herself in desire for her boyfriend. Family drama grounds an otherwise over-the-top story line.
