Nothing is fair for Christina Fall Smith. She grew up a Road Runner - a name the townspeople of Dickinson, New York gave to residents of mobile homes -, her father is constantly consumed in his company, her mother is enveloped in her newfound popularity for being a sexy morning talkshow host. But worst of all, at age thirteen, she fell in love with a homeless boy who abandoned her after three weeks of him endlessly feasting on Christina's lunchbox leftovers. Four years later, Emerson Wallace is nothing but a pack of cigarettes, a head full of luscious black hair, and a strong voice: playing lead singer in his punk rock band for millions of fans worldwide. When Christina's mom interviews his band and Christina befriends the bassist, she is determined to confront Emerson about their history. But rather than collapsing at her feet and begging for redemption, Emerson does the exact opposite. Instead, he smugly gives her a nickname she will never forget. "I am going to call you Knots. You're messy, annoying, hated, ugly, and always in my hair." · previous cover credits goes to a girl who makes incredible covers @-Mantha- new cover credits goes to @redxwritingxhood
