When Chase Forrest gets arrested over a 'misunderstanding', he’s offered two choices- jail or community service. Naturally, his father forced him to devote two hundred hours of his summer for community service. Yes, Chase Forrest was now forced to spend his afternoons picking up trash and god forbid, planting trees with a bunch of hippy tree huggers, which was definitely not his idea of a fun summer. Add in an angry obese policeman, a blond bimbo, many awkward moments, and Alaska Green, and you have one 'adventurous' and unforgettable summer.

Sixteen-year-old Pippa Greene never goes anywhere without her camera. She and her best friend/supermodel-in-training Dace long ago mapped out their life plan: Pippa will be the noted fashion photographer, and Dace the cover girl. But ever since last spring, things have changed for Pippa — and her junior year at Spalding High proves to have its own set of challenges. Not only is Vantage Point, the statewide photography competition, in three short weeks, but her mandatory volunteer placement lands her at St. Christopher’s Hospital, a place Pippa never wanted to set foot in again. With humour and pluck, she navigates her new role as a candy striper (watch out for Code Yellows), her changing relationship with her best friend (goodbye Honesty Pact), and — perhaps most stressful of all — her new love interests (yes, love interests plural). Will Pippa make it to Vantage Point without having a panic attack? Will either one of the guys prove less sketchy than her last boyfriend? Can she and Dace figure out a way to dream big and be best friends? One thing is certain: real life is a lot more complicated than a photograph. New chapter updates every Wednesday!

"You want to know what relativity is? It's when you fall in love with someone, and time speeds up whenever you're around them - a conversation is cut too short and a glance becomes too fleeting. Hours seem like seconds, and you can never get enough of their presence. It's also when time slows down whenever you're apart from each other - an afternoon of separation feels like days of absence. Seconds seem like hours, and time comes to a grinding halt. That, my friend, is the phenomenon of relativity." This is the story of how a normal girl saved a superhuman boy who saved a psychic girl who wanted to save the rotting world.
