Best Friends Never — Isabelle Drake

Be careful who you keep secrets with, especially in picture-perfect Cherry Grove, a place where average isn't good enough, and nothing is what it seems.

Lexi Welks wants two things -- respect and a college acceptance letter that'll get her out of too-good-to-be-true Cherry Grove. The problem is that the nasty, life-ruining secret she shares with Monica Sanders is about to go public. If their ugly truth comes out, her plans for college -- not happening. And that's only the beginning of her end.

Monica is the kind of student teachers adore -- well-behaved, hard-working and always following the rules. She's the kind of friend other girls follow -- well-dressed, popular and always knowing the right thing to do. If only they knew the truth about her. The truth Lexi found out the hard way, after spending the past summer letting Monica talk her into doing things she knew could come back to ruin her.

Now it's the first week of school and one of the seniors is missing. Lexi knows a thing or two about the circumstances of his disappearance, but she's not talking. Neither is Monica. But wicked truths have a way of crawling to the surface and tearing through the most careful plans.
