Summary
Kiara always felt she knew herself exceptionally well.
Her parents used words like precocious and opinionated to describe her at an early age... As she got older, she learned that those were coded words for traits like stubborn, single-minded, and obstinate.
She preferred terms like passionate, determined, and candid.
But when she met Rafe Cameron, Kiara learned she didn’t know herself quite as well as she’d believed.

Summary
Kiara Carrera knows who she is, and she knows what she wants. At least, she always thought she did.
But as she braves her freshman year at UNC, everything Kiara thinks she knows about herself will be challenged. And when she's forced to spend time with Rafe Cameron, the last person she ever thought she'd be friends with, Kiara must grapple with complicated feelings and desires that deviate from the idea of herself she's always had in her head. Will she be able to make peace with these changes? Will the Pogues?
Set in an alternate universe where the Pogues never went treasure hunting and are living as normal college students.

Summary
“My parents are happy I’m friends with Sarah,” she dips her hand back in, grazing the surface of the water, “they think she’s a positive influence. She’ll make me more of a Kook.”
It doesn’t slip past him the way Kook is said with scorn.
“You say that like it’s a death sentence,” Rafe’s eyes closes and he tilts his head back to rest on the bricks.
“Take a look around Rafe, that’s exactly what it is.”
He exhales the smoke in his lungs, “So you’d rather run away and hide?”
“Isn’t that exactly what you’re doing as well?”
or: Kiara Carrera acts out during her Kook Year and Rafe Cameron happens to be in her direct line of fire. She doesn't even want to think about the consequences of this, not yet.
