During a hot Arizona summer volunteering at a nursing home, troubled teen Dudley and eccentric newbie Naya find themselves growing closer over the poems of a mysterious elderly woman with dementia who disappeared decades ago. ***** Dudley Warrington is barely getting by.

Sixteen-year-old Opal might be everything you hate in a person. She's snobby, conceited, and has more popularity than she knows what to do with in her sunny and densely populated Florida city. In contrast, Jack, nicknamed "Alaska" by Opal in regards to the quiet Alaskan town where he resides, is sweet, caring, and compassionate. The two are complete opposites in almost every way. When Opal is whisked away to some unheard of town in Alaska to spend spring break with her older brother and brand new and annoying stepsister, she is not happy. After all, spring break is a time to tan and lay by the pool, not freeze in the snow as you only get paler. But things get even more complicated when an accident leaves Opal and Jack lost in the middle of nowhere with nothing more than a survival backpack and each other. Though the two were brought together by chance and they disagree on practically everything, they now must rely on each other if they want to get back in one piece. With constant battles being thrown their way that seem nearly impossible to overcome, confessions that are bound to be unleashed, and the blossoming promise of second chances, there is no telling what lies ahead for these two. They only have one mission: find their way back to civilization in time before it's too late.

Follow through their hilarious journey of flying tennis rackets, ludicrous high-pitched singings, burnt chocolate cupcakes, and maybe even the slightest bit of love that all began from a simple song. ©2015 All rights reserved.
