The Girl They Never Saw Coming Mia Carter thought moving from the United Kingdom to Georgia would be nothing more than a fresh start. She was leaving behind her friends, her familiar life, and everything she had ever known because of her mother's job. Starting over at Westbrook High wasn't exactly what she wanted, but Mia was determined to make the best of it. Then she walked through the school doors. Being the new girl was already difficult, but being the girl everyone noticed made things even harder. Mia was smart, confident, kind, and unapologetically herself—but Westbrook High had already decided who they thought she was. The rumors started small. Then they spread. Soon, Mia was being called a "pick-me," judged for her appearance, and talked about by people who didn't even know her. And at the center of it all was Iris—the popular girl who seemed to control the school's social world. But Mia wasn't alone. Eva, Andrew, Sophie, Naomi, and her best friend Chloe slowly became the people who reminded her that she didn't have to change herself to belong. Then there's Trent, Westbrook's popular basketball star. The closer Mia gets to him, the more complicated everything becomes—and Iris isn't about to sit back and watch it happen. One party. One moment. One video. And suddenly, the entire school has a new reason to talk about Mia. She could disappear. She could let the rumors win. Or she could walk straight back through the doors of Westbrook High and show everyone exactly who she is. Because sometimes, the person everyone underestimates becomes the person nobody can ignore. This is the story of Mia Carter—the girl they never saw coming.
