Where the girls are cool and the boys are seriously hot ... When her parents decide a change will be good for her, seventeen - year - old Lexie Atkinson never expected they'd send her all the way to Paradise City. Coming from a predictable life of homeschooling on a rural Australian property, she just knows that Paradise will be amazing. But when she's thrust into a public school without a friendly face in sight, and forced to share a room with her insipid, hateful cousin Amanda, Lexie's not so sure. Hanging out with the self - proclaimed beach bums of the city, sneaking out, late - night parties and parking with boys are all things Lexie's never experienced, but all that's about to change. It's new, terrifying . . . and exciting. And when Lexie meets Luke Ballantine, the swoon - worthy, bad - boy leader of the group, the chemistry between them is electric. Trouble with a capital T, Luke is impulsive, charming and answers to no one, and he's sexier than any guy Lexie has ever known. Lexie begins to wonder if Luke is going to be good for her . . . or very, very bad? A funny, sexy and romantic novel from the bestselling author of the Summer series.
