Ashleigh's boyfriend, Kaleb, is about to leave for college, and Ashleigh is worried that he'll forget about her while he's away. So at a legendary end-of-summer pool party, Ashleigh's friends suggest she text him a picture of herself -- sans swimsuit -- to take with him. Before she can talk herself out of it, Ashleigh strides off to the bathroom, snaps a photo in the full-length mirror, and hits "send."
But when Kaleb and Ashleigh go through a bad breakup, Kaleb takes revenge by forwarding the text to his baseball team. Soon the photo has gone viral, attracting the attention of the school board, the local police, and the media. As her friends and family try to distance themselves from the scandal, Ashleigh feels completely alone -- until she meets Mack while serving her court-ordered community service. Not only does Mack offer a fresh chance at friendship, but he's the one person in town who received the text of Ashleigh's photo -- and didn't look.
This novel looks like an amazing Contemporary read and I really can't wait til it's released! :3 I looks like the type of book I won't be able to put down til I've finished the entire thing. ^.^ There are so many amazing books that aren't out yet, as I say every week, I wish I could have them all! :P As for the cover, I think it's gorgeous. I love the fact that the typography dominates most of the cover, and the boy in the background is blurred compared to the girl. It's really cleverly done. (:
