My synopsis: Skylar has made it through her last year in high school. She had started out with such high hopes in changing herself, but by the end of the year was slipping back into the old Skylar's skin. Connor had disappointed her by playing the hero to Jodi's damsel in distress, so even though she loved him, she broke up with him. Eli saw this as his open door and made a play for her whenever the opportunity arose. He had had feelings for Skylar for awhile, and even though she knew it was wrong, whenever she had a run-in with Connor, she ended up having a drink or too and hooking up with Eli. She always felt bad about making out with him, and kept trying to tell herself that it was okay. She was headed to Hawaii to stay with her grandparents for the summer and figured she could start over on her reinvention while she was there.
Hawaii didn't prove to be the oasis that she thought it would be. Her Grammy immediately started matchmaking with Justin, the boy next door, and Skylar found herself using him to try and forget Connor. After just a few days he called her on it and told her he wasn't into summer flings and didn't like being used if she was truly going to go home after 2 months. Turns out she realized that she couldn't run from her problems and returned home with her family after only 2 weeks.
The crux of all the problems and changes in her life had started in Book 1 when Eli rescued her from a possible date rape situation. She had not gotten over it and had also not shared it with anyone except for Eli, Connor and her sister Abby. As it continues to color her relationship with her other friends, she wonders if she will ever be able to move forward.
