When that doesn’t happen, Jacqueline falls unexpectedly in love, even as the town in the past becomes swallowed in a fight for its survival. Jack/Jacqueline is caught between two lives and epochs, and must find a way to save everyone around him as well as himself. And all the while, he is losing time, even if he is getting out of algebra class.

All Katie Watts wants is to pass her junior-year, at Hamilton Private, with as little effort as possible—devoting time to knitting hats, breeding gerbils, becoming a movie critic, or even just sleeping. No wonder she isn’t ready for a world with vampires, werewolves, and nightmares. Her life is shattered to pieces when Tristan gets stabbed in her front yard.

Her father is keeping secrets and when she searches for the truth, she ends up homeless. As the truth claws its way to the surface, Katie and Tristan grow closer together and they find themselves connected in more ways than she can believe.

Her real dad won’t admit there’s a problem, Tristan is about to give up on her, and she almost gives up on herself—until she meets Portia, the girl with a solution. But not every rabbit hole is worth going down—or coming back from. Worst, people are missing and no one knows if its the vampires, scrambling to find a new coven leader; the werewolves, who are fighting among themselves; or this new group, the Seven, claiming peace. Katie is suffocating from her inability to live like yesterday never happened. But will new scenery, and new friends be enough to save her when true darkness comes at dawn?
