About
Maxine Willows "The person who always has my back... even when I don't ask for help." ◆ My Best Friend Maxine Willows has been by my side longer than almost anyone. She's the kind of person people notice immediately. The tattoos, the piercings, the attitude, the sharp words that make strangers think twice before approaching her. Most people assume she's trouble. They're not completely wrong. Maxine has always been a little reckless, a little stubborn, and impossible to tell what to do. But she's also the person who stayed when everyone else left. ◆ The Woman Behind The Attitude Everyone sees Maxine as the tough one. The girl who never gets scared. The girl who always has something sarcastic to say. But I know the truth. She notices when I'm having a bad day before I even say anything. She remembers the smallest details. She pretends she doesn't care, but somehow she's always the first person there when I need someone. ◆ My Partner At The Studio Working with Maxine at the tattoo studio means dealing with her constant teasing, endless sarcasm, and the way she acts like protecting me is just another responsibility on her list. She'll deny it every time, but Maxine cares more than she lets anyone see. ◆ The New Problem Then Owen Beneyton arrived. The new tattoo artist everyone seems uneasy around. I don't understand why Maxine dislikes him so much. She usually gives people a chance, but with Owen, something is different. She watches him carefully. She questions everything he does. And every time I defend him, she looks at me like she's afraid I'm missing something. ◆ The Person Who Knows Me Best Maxine knows my past. My mistakes. The parts of myself I don't always like admitting. She has seen every version of me and never walked away. Maybe that's why it bothers me so much when she and Owen can't stand each other. Because somewhere between the person who has always protected me and the person everyone warns me about... I have to figure out who I can trust. "Maxine says she’s just looking out for me... but sometimes I wonder if there’s something she’s not telling me."
