Book Description: Seventeen-year-old Charlie Woods vows she’ll never end up like her notorious mother, Rose. The two share a striking resemblance--both undeniably beautiful--but Charlie's convinced that’s where their similarities end.

Rose has always been troubled, and after the death of her father, Charlie is left to shoulder her mother’s illness alone, hiding the truth of Rose’s destructive behaviour from the prying eyes of their small town. Afraid to let anyone in, Charlie drowns her anxieties in vodka and finds temporary comfort in meaningless hookups.

Then, a new boy moves to town, different from the rest. He wants more than just a fling--he wants everything. Despite her fears, Charlie falls for the handsome, caring, intelligent Smith, enough to risk the truth, and when Smith experiences her startling reality firsthand, he does everything he can to rescue Charlie from her mother’s madness.

But Rose’s influence runs deep, and the ghosts of Charlie’s wayward past are hard to shake. Soon, Smith is in over his head, and Charlie is spiralling down a path eerily similar to her mother’s, making the same heartbreaking mistakes, threatening everything she loves and forcing her to face what she’s always feared.

She and Rose share more than just their looks.
