Shunned by her friends and even her father after she accuses the town golden boy of rape, Grace wonders if she can ever trust Ian, a classmate who is funny, kind, and has secrets of his own.

"Giving up is easy, not right. If doing the right thing were easy, nobody would ever do stuff they know is wrong, like kiss their daughter's dance instructor or rape an unconscious girl who already said no.” 

"Grace is a girl. That's it. You want to slap on any other names, knock yourself out. But don't ever forget she's a girl first, and we don't treat girls like that. Feel me?"

The cops wanted to know if I was Zac's girlfriend, if I was drinking, doing drugs, if I ever I worked as a stripper, if I ever kissed Zac before that night. What the hell does any of that have to do with what happened? Do the laws against sexual assault not apply to strippers? To girlfriends? I don’t get that. 

Nobody gets it. I was with friends. People I know, people I’ve known for all of high school and even before that. I should have been able to stand there buck naked and be safe.

Being noticed isn’t an open invitation to guys to do whatever they want to me.
