Chapter 28, Part 1 Cassie led Mariah up to the roof. Since the ice cream had been finished earlier that day, s’mores were on the menu for dessert.

Chapter 26, Part 1 Mason helped Mariah carry Kyle outside. They didn’t get very far on the gravel lot before Kyle’s legs buckled. They had no choice but to finish lowering him to the ground.

Chapter 24, Part 2 This is really happening, Cassie thought as she climbed up into the sleek plane waiting on the dusty runway.
