There's a new boy in town just as another one of her brother's friends confesses feelings for her just as Caleb begins to take notice to her.

Not to mention her secret manhunt to find her mother, who abandoned her family when she and her brother were four. How can she get through the last half of senior year with all of this abnormal drama going on around her?
