about the book

For Jill Sherer, high school's shaping up to be better than she could've imagined. From the first week of cheerleading practice, she and her best friends Hillary and Lorylyn are included in a circle of popular girls who open the door to a world of exciting social possibilities. And on the first day of school JIll meets Todd - hot, smart, athletic, funny, and a flirt - the boy of her dreams.

But things with Todd don't go as Jill had hoped, she and Hillary drift apart, and her circle of friends is shaken because of Lorylyn's new boyfriend. Desperate to get things back to the way they were, Jill, along with her new best friend Hilton - a gorgeous, intriguing girl who is the link between Jill's old friends and her new ones - anxiously awaits the one thing that never changes...Landon Kessler's parties.

There, on a lake outside town, everyone comes together time after time for dancing, drinking, skinny-dipping, and spin the bottle. Spin the bottle...the game that leads to new loves, bitter jealousies, betrayals, and breakups. The game that teasingly draws the circle of friends together, only to rip them apart in unforeseeable ways. But they keep coming back, some with hope, some with malevolence, some with amused interest, to be part of the saga that unfolds party after party, month after month...

part 1

a pact to always stick together in high school
the first party at the lake
"hey, we should play spin the bottle," she said
and so it all began

the beautiful girls, so sure of themselves
they could get anything they wanted
the gorgeous boys, so funny and tan
one look, one smile, they totally had you

losing old friends, making new ones
love at first sight, the boy of my dreams
everyone called us "really good friends"
he didn't know i wanted so much more...
