Grief fresh and emotions raw, Gus Hawthorne is forced to return to life long before he’s ready or willing. His up-and-coming band, Rook, is set to commence a postponed European tour, their debut album is blowing up worldwide, and all he wants to do is hide.

Kate Sedgwick’s life has been anything but typical. She’s endured hardship and tragedy, but throughout it all, she remains happy and optimistic (there’s a reason her best friend Gus calls her Bright Side). She’s quick-witted, endlessly passionate about music, the first to offer a smile, and the kind of loyal that most friends only dream about. The one thing that escapes her optimism is love. She’s never bought into it. So, when Kate leaves San Diego to attend college in the small town of Grant, Minnesota, the last thing she expects is to fall hard for Keller Banks.

There are two sides to every story. The surface reality that’s presented to the world. And then, there’s the other side. The real one. The one that matters. Seventeen-year-old self-proclaimed asshole Toby Page is alone. No friends. No family. He trades maintenance work in exchange for room and board. Every day, he fights demons no one else can see. Every day, he wants to give up. But he can’t. Not yet. When Alice Eliot moves in downstairs, she offers Toby some light in his dark world.

Lei non era solo la sua migliore amica, lei era la sua metà... L'altra metà del suo cervello e della sua coscienza, l'altra metà del suo senso dell'umorismo e della sua creatività, l'altra metà del suo cuore. Come si può tornare a essere ciò che si è stati, quando la parte più importante di noi se n'è andata per sempre? Gus è una rockstar, ma è anche un ragazzo fragile, arrabbiato con il mondo e con il destino che gli ha sottratto la persona più cara, colei che arricchiva la sua vita e dava linfa alla sua musica.

Tutti abbiamo un segreto da nascondere. Alcuni ne hanno di inconfessabili, altri di pericolosi, altri ancora di innocenti. Ma una cosa è certa: rivelare un segreto può cambiare per sempre le nostre vite, guarire i mali del nostro animo, oppure crearci un bel po' di problemi... Kate Sedgwick non è mai stata molto fortunata, ha sopportato durezze e tragedie, ma nonostante ciò si è sempre sforzata di guardare l'aspetto positivo delle cose, tanto che per Gus, il suo amico del cuore, lei è il lato luminoso della vita.

Seventeen-year-old Veronica Smith has it all: a loving family, a funky car named Jezebel, and a plan to go to college after graduation. On the first day of senior year, she meets Dimitri Glenn - a mysterious transfer student with gray eyes and a mischievous smile who seems determined to win her heart. But there's something odd about Dimitri, leading Veronica to wonder if there's more to him than meets the eye.

Franco Genovese is the drummer for world-renowned American rock band Rook. He's got it all. A killer smile. Tattoos. Talent. Razor-sharp wit and humor. And a heart as big, and generous, as they come. Life is good. Steady. Uncomplicated. Just the way he likes things. Until one night at an unassuming L.A. bar changes everything.

Love is strange. It comes out of nowhere, and there's no logic to it. It's not methodical. It's not scientific. It's pure emotion and passion. And emotion and passion can be dangerous because they fuel love...and hate. I'm now a reluctant connoisseur of both - an expert through immersion. I know them intimately. When I fell in love with Miranda, it was swift and blind. She was the person I'd elevated to mythical status in my head, in my dreams. Here's the thing about dreams: They're smoke.
