Phases Nikita Haynie

MACKENZIE ADAMS prides herself on being a perfectionist; perfect high school accolades, making the perfect college choice, and most of all, having the perfect family. But life-shattering news from her parents causes her to question everything she believes in. Mackenzie's best friend, JUSTICE CONNER, appears to have it all. Her confident, free-spirited persona makes her the life of the party---until her world is turned upside down after she begins a romantic relationship with the most popular guy on campus. WESLEY DUNN has always played it safe and abided by the rules. Eager to reinvent himself and finally claim his title as "one of the cool guys," he begins assimilating to the influences around him, only to discover the true price of popularity. Then, there's CHANCE DAVIS---an overly conceited and arrogant student athlete who's determined to climb out of his older brother's shadow. When his "Big Man on Campus" lifestyle catches up to him, along with a letter from his estranged mother, he's forced to face his careless choices. Before growth can begin, these four students will need to learn to navigate life-altering obstacles to survive their freshman year in college.
