Without further adieu, I give you the summary:
Heartsick
Caitlin Sinead
Quinn is looking forward to her
senior year. She has big plans to hang out with her best friend Mandy, flirt
with cute boy-genius Rashid, party at her favorite dive bar, and figure out
what she’s going to do after graduation with her not-so-useful art major
degree. But that is before she meets Luke, a hot townie who moves back
home to help take care of his dying sister. And it is before the weird epidemic
that starts sweeping campus in which people’s eyes mysteriously turn
purple. Is it an odd side effect from a new party drug? Is it a rogue
bacteria that was developed in a campus lab? Whatever it is, tensions are
heating up as the town starts blaming the university, and the student religious
group is convinced that it’s the mark of the devil. Quinn and Luke are
caught in the middle, especially when Quinn learns that Luke isn’t just a
happy-go-lucky, redneck boy-next-door—he is a detective—a fact that triggers
Quinn’s phobia of guns and memories of her deceased uncle. In spite of
herself and her desire to remain unattached and independent, Quinn finds
herself falling for him. But when town and gown relations heat up even
further, and Quinn’s friend Danny mysteriously falls to his death, Quinn vows
to discover the truth behind the epidemic. As she searches for the people
responsible, she realizes that sometimes to gain your independence, you have to
be willing to give a little bit of it up.

I don't have a jpeg of her book cover, or else I'd post it here, but you guys have to see it. I've started paying a lot more attention to covers lately, and I have to say Heartsick's cover is exactly what it should be.
