THE PLAYERS: New girl Raye Archer and her unlikely partner-in-crime, Ice Queen Ella Parker.

THE PLAN: Create an online identity, use it to charm Julian, then use information gained through that faux-relationship to sabotage him.

THE OUTCOME: Better. . . and worse. . . than Raye ever could have imagined.
