Produktbeschreibung
In the summer of 2000, nationally-ranked cross country sensation and academic overachiever Emily Banks finds herself scrambling for the right answer for the first time in her life after a high school party ends with a confusing sexual encounter that casts her down a rabbit hole of humiliation and regret.
