We found ourselves in each other's arms again, and I realized that this secret could grow into something more. But was I ready for the consequences?

I fell in love with my upstairs neighbor. Completely and forever. Like a teenager, though I haven't been one for years. Her childlike spontaneity, quirkiness, and rebellious spirit pierced straight through to my heart. There's just one problem... She's taken. She doesn't belong to me...

My parents likely decided to torture me by sending me to my aunt's for the entire summer, tearing me away from my boyfriend and best friends. Yes, I understand they have an important expedition, but I'm already eighteen. I'm very responsible and can live independently. Unfortunately, my parents don't agree. Arriving in Destin for the summer, I never imagined my life would turn completely upside down. A bad boy named Mike will make sure of that.

The demons that live in each of us are merely pale shadows compared to the demon that has taken residence in a person with bipolar disorder. Daemon Meyer's manic episode is a seasonal phenomenon, but when the young man's mental disorder intensifies, his life bursts into vivid colors.

My name is Sarah Martin. I'm an ordinary eighteen-year-old girl who is isolated from society for extraordinary reasons. Along with me, one thousand and twenty-six people live by the rules and laws of a deranged killer, observing the curfew. However, the residents of West Side get away with a lot, and something tells me these former prisoners maintain contact with the outside world.
