This summer I’d planned to celebrate my eighteenth birthday in Europe with my fellow Manhattanites—Taddy Brill Blake Morgan and Vive Farnworth—until I caught my boyfriend screwing my mother. According to the police report this vomit-inducing incident happened around the same time I’d supposedly blown-up my mother’s penthouse. Like I’m walking around Soho with a stick of dynamite in my Louis Vuitton purse—not! Now my besties and I are in jail. Officer Ford Gotti the Harley-wheelin’ biker cop who arrested us keeps sticking his perfectly-sculpted nose into my case. His inked body is jacked like a superhero and he says I can trust him. He wants me to fess up. I won’t. Not again. Why should I? My friends and I had a previous stint in juvie that nearly destroyed us. I gotta protect them and keep my mouth shut. Right? —Lex Easton women’s studies major motorcycle enthusiast and virgin. The Undergrad Years is a New Adult contemporary miniseries about first loves independence and everlasting friendships.
