Hey!” Summer slapped the countertop and June jumped. She watched her
friend run a hand through her wild and untamed bright red hair while her
green eyes shone with a spark that could only mean trouble. “The company
barbeque. That’s it. I’m coming. You’re bringing me as your date.”
“No, Summer, everyone knows you’re my best friend. And it would

“This is exactly why you shouldn’t be there. Because you’ll end up

“Good God,” June groaned.
“How can you forget what she did that day? It still makes me furious
when I think about it.”
June’s throat was suddenly dry and scratchy again. Even though her
stomach was churning worse than ever, she picked up her drink and downed
the rest of it. “I haven’t forgotten anything.”
