The Truth About Maverick

by Olivia Reich, Sydney Savery (Editor)

Emma Lancaster is everything that Maverick Reese is not; quiet, focused, from a good family and has never traveled far outside her comfort zone. When Emma and Maverick form an unlikely friendship, Emma is forced to confront a side of her she has never explored, and also finds herself being the only person who knows the truth about Maverick Reese - that perhaps, he is a lot more than his less-than-honorable reputation. But as more ugly truths and disturbing factors of Maverick's home life become clear, Emma's ability to commit to supporting him is tested, and she will be forced to choose between the quiet, unproblematic and "safe" Emma, or the version of herself that the rest of the world is unfamiliar the Emma who loves Maverick. As time passes, Emma is confronted with another does soul-altering young love stand a chance against the barriers that divide them?
