Obsessed with the constellations, she finds peace in the starry night sky above the fields behind her house until one night her stargazing causes an accident. After witnessing his motorcycle wreck, she forms an unusual friendship with one of her father's thugs, Kellen, a tattooed ex-con with a heart of gold.

They think the way she looks and acts means she's trying to be a boy - that she should quit trying to be something she's not. If she dresses like a girl and does what her folks want, it will show respect. If she takes orders and does what her friend, Colby, wants, it will show her loyalty. But respect and loyalty, Pen discovers, are empty words.

Publisher's summary
Keith's mother is dead, but that doesn't mean she's stopped trying to help him turn his life around. His dad, however, doesn't see any reason he or Keith should stop drinking or using drugs.
Ashley and her two best friends have never known real love. When the girls make a road trip into a larger city near their home on the Oklahoma plains, they stumble upon a book at an estate sale that might be the answer to their romantic problems. When the school's renowned drug user approaches Ashley, she doesn't think there's any way she'd ever fall for Keith.
As her friends use the grimoire to wreak havoc on the boys of the school who have mistreated them, Ashley can't help but wonder if Keith's interest is real or the result of the spells her friends claim to be creating. Then the high school erupts in chaos and the unlikely couple have to work against the evil that has been unleashed on their small town.

Story
A summer job. That's all it was supposed to be. It never crossed my mind that I was about to collide with a man who would obliterate every plan I ever made. My mother has always warned me that love is like a lightning bolt and it strikes without warning. But I had no intention of getting struck by either lightning or love anytime soon. I'd be too busy finishing my journalism degree and landing a job in a city far more sophisticated than Phoenix. There was certainly nothing in the cards about getting involved with an ex-ballplayer turned nightclub boss.

Victor hates his life. He has no friends, gets beaten up at school, and his parents are always criticizing him. Tired of feeling miserable, Victor takes a bottle of his mother’s sleeping pills - only to wake up in the hospital. Bull is angry, and takes all of his rage out on Victor. That makes him feel better, at least a little. But it doesn’t stop Bull’s grandfather from getting drunk and hitting him. So Bull tries to defend himself with a loaded gun. When Victor and Bull end up as roommates in the same psych ward, there’s no way to escape each other or their problems. Which means things are going to get worse - much worse - before they get better.
