Summary and Study Guide
Overview
In Colleen Hoover’s young adult novel Hopeless (2012), the bright and beautiful Sky Davis, after years of homeschooling, enrolls in the local high school for her senior year, determined to experience that complex world before going off to college. On the first day in school, Sky sees the handsome Dean Holder, a bad boy with unruly hair, a fit body, a tattoo, and a real attitude. The two discover the rush of first love and, quickly thereafter, the heady pull of first lust. But this conventional premise implodes as Sky and Holder discover they met years before as kids when they were neighbors. Slowly, Sky must confront painful memories of her father, who sexually assaulted her for many dark and horrific years.
