Growing up with an average family sounds good. It sounds as if it comes with minimal problems. Yes., but growing up black with an average family, in a white neighborhood comes with many struggles. Being raised in Capitol Hill Washington DC is decent. It's quiet and nice. Plus, you get access to things which people outside of Hills don't. 18-year-old Rue Jackson still gets a lot of dirty looks from others because of her skin color. When she finds a flyer at the store for a spot on a dance team at The Art Institutes, she hopes her skin color can be put aside and her skills can be noticed.

(I suck at descriptions like this one) Louanne Lorelei is recovering from things no teenager should ever go through. Returning back to her schools, she gets bombarded with secrets and hidden tragedies. Mysteries that are so dark and painful are hidden behind the walls of that school and inside those students. Being lost is an understatement for her, for a lot of them, actually. But also... While trying to find herself again, while picking herself piece by piece, she meets someone as lost and weird as her. Part of her didn't expect something like that to happen in her time of recovery. When two lost souls find each other, it can get either messy or beautiful. But that depends on the circumstances. Because it's not a pretty sight to choke on your orange juice in front of them. It's embarrassing...
