Clarke and Katie have been best friends since elementary school, sharing sleepovers, pizza bagel recipes, and their jobs at a failing ice cream shop.
But Katie's new relationship with Nick, a street racer from a rival high school, leaves Clarke behind.
She fills the Katie-shaped hole in her life with Nick's best friend and fellow racer, Zayne.
But this is not a love story.
As Clarke and Zayne fall for one another, Clarke's world is rocked with the thrill of street racing, binge drinking, and living in a moment where it feels like everything is changing.
In her rush to become the version of herself Zayne says he loves, Clarke starts to lose touch with the person she is.
Soon, Clarke's transformation into a girl who lives on the edge becomes an ultimatum: what is she willing to leave behind when summer ends?
Please be advised that despite being about a relationship, TTWCS is not a romance novel.
