Hi, my name is Cadence. I have lived in New Jersey my whole life. I can't wait to get out of this hell hole! I live with my mom that abuses me and my dad that doesn't even talk to me. They say that I should just go and die, maybe they were right. In school is just the same. Nothing really changes. I have no friends. I am 15 years old and I weight 91 pounds because my family doesn't feed me even though they have the money to. I don't eat at school because I have no friends to sit by so I just go outside and wait until they dismiss everyone to go to class from lunch. At school there are these two twins that like to beat me up because they like the attention. There already popular because there famous. All the girls are on them, I guarantee they are just doing that to get popular. I meet somewhere everyday so they can beat me up. They told me if I didn't meet them there something really bad will happen so I just do. I don't care anymore. Why should I?

I'm a freak, I'm blind," Riley had once asked her, but Ellie could never answer that question, and she would never be able to. Ellie Burke is just this simple town girl, who will never look at the wrong way about anyone. Moving to Florida means everything to her - she could turn over a new leaf, start a new life, and get the chance to actually be someone -and not just this useless nerdy girl. Everything's going well for her until she meets this boy in her English class - and he's the most interesting, unique person Ellie has ever met. The boy who lost his sight. She's going to fight for what her heart wants every step of the way. This is Ellie's story, and it's going to be one bumpy, complicated romance that's nothing like the fairy tales say. A story of hope, trust and what true love really means.
