Synopsis

Kane and Harper know what they want:
Beth and Adam.
And they know how to get it:
Break up the shiny happy couple once and for all.

Miranda thinks she knows how to hit on Kane (Mr. Unattainable). But she could take a few pointers from the all-knowing Kaia, who's seducing Mr. Powell, teacher en franÇais. And Reed? Well, he just knows how to have a good time....

Know the feeling?

From School Library Journal:

Grade 9 Up–This sequel to Lust (S & S, 2005) rejoins the overindulged, morally bankrupt students of Haven High who are looking to entertain themselves with sex, parties, and alcohol. They all want relationships with someone who is unavailable and are willing to do anything, and hurt anyone, to achieve their goal. As with the earlier book, the truly unlikable characters are overshadowed by surprisingly good storytelling. Honor and trust are unimportant and the cruelty shown to best friends is especially appalling. Readers who are looking for a fast-paced, soap-opera-style novel will enjoy this compelling and frightening look into what kids today are talking about and dealing with.–Stephanie L. Petruso, Anne Arundel County Public Library, Odenton, MD
