What Happened at Kate's House

Book excerpt: A lot can change in ten years. Kate, Amaya and Steve have been best friends since the second grade, but the start of senior year finds them all in very different places. Kate feels lost after dumping her long-term boyfriend, the bully who sent Steve to the hospita land drove him away. Amaya's insecurities have led her to a string of bad choices and worse relationships. And Steve feels more comfortable rolling a10-sided die with his raid party than hanging out with his two best friends. And then there's Ashley. After three, long years apart, Steve jumps at the chance to see Kate and Amaya at Kate's 'End of Summer' party. None are sure where their friendship stands, but each hopes for something more while fearing a single word of what they feel could tear them apart again -- this time forever. As the sun goes down and the music turns up, one thing is for certain -- this will be a party no one will forget.
