Defiant by Candace Wondrak

I was lied to. Purposefully misled and embarrassed. But I’m not down and out yet.

Coming to Midpark was hard. I left everything behind me, and now I come to find out I can’t trust anyone here.
The charming jock used me and tossed me aside, lying to me all the while—and the bad boy? The bad boy apparently comes from a family who deals in illegal business daily. And that says nothing about the new psycho in town. His name is Dante, and he’s tall, dark, and handsome in all the ways that drive me crazy.
Then there’s Jacob, my private investigator. There’s something he’s not telling me, but I’ll let him have his secrets. I have much bigger fish to fry, anyway.
These rich Midpark kids will get theirs, even if it’s the last thing I do. The thing is…not all of us are going to make it out of this alive.
