To save her life, she must risk her heart.
For 18-year-old Sidney Shaw, life pretty much sucks. Her mom's a drunk. Her dad is worse. At school, she's bullied by her ex-best friend, and cutting no longer brings the relief she craves.
When Sidney is forced into group counseling, she meets perfect, popular Arianna, the type of girl who grieves over a broken nail. But Arianna is surprising: she might prove herself a friend if Sidney can let her guard down.
Then there's Lucas, the sweet and funny new guy who sees straight through her snarky façade. But Sidney's wounds go deeper than anyone knows. When her secrets threaten to unravel her, Sidney must choose. How far is she willing to go to protect her family? Who can she turn to when the unthinkable happens?
From USA Today Bestselling Author Kyla Stone comes Beneath the Skin, a gritty young adult novel exploring trauma and resilience, the redemptive power of friendship, and how we piece our broken selves back together, one shard at a time. For fans of Laurie Halse Anderson's Wintergirls, Kathleen Glasglow's Girl in Pieces, and Ellen Hopkin's Identical.
*Trigger Warning: Includes mild language, self-harm, and non-graphic depictions of abuse. Recommended for ages 16+*
