Synopsis

In this suspenseful and romantic teen thriller based on the “can’t pull your eyes away” series on Lifetime, one girl discovers that trusting the wrong person could have deadly consequences.

Pretty and popular, seventeen-year-old Brooke Emerson is the envy of her classmates—and even some of her closest friends. But while she seems to have it all, Brooke has never felt so lost.

Ever since she sustained a head injury during a cheerleading stunt the previous year, she’s suffered from a disorder that causes her to fly into uncontrollable, sometimes violent rages. As hard as she tries to keep it together, she finds herself in danger of jeopardizing her seemingly perfect life.

It isn’t until Brooke meets Jake, a handsome and charismatic stranger, that she feels like she’s found someone who not only understands her, but accepts her for who she is. As tempting as it is to get swept up in the romance, she can’t help but feel like something in their relationship isn’t quite right.

When her best friend is brutally murdered, Brooke has no choice but to depend on her new love...especially because she's worried that she might be the killer.

• Unreliable Narrator: After a head injury leaves her with terrifying blackouts and violent rages, Brooke can’t trust her own memories. Especially the ones from the night her best friend was killed.
• Romantic Suspense: Just as her life spirals out of control, a charismatic stranger named Jake appears. He seems to understand her like no one else, but his affection might be another kind of danger.
• Gaslighting and Betrayal: With her best friend gone and her own mind a mystery, Brooke must rely on her new boyfriend. But as his story begins to unravel, she has to question who she can really trust.
• Twists and Turns: Perfect for fans of page-turning psychological thrillers where the killer is hiding in plain sight and the truth is more shocking than you can imagine.
