WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION. It only takes one moment to change your life forever . . . After her mother's deportation last year, all Soledad "Sol" Gutierrez wants is for her life to go back to normal.

When she joins her community college's history club, it comes with an odd initiation process: break into Westray's oldest house and steal . . . a fork?

This one chance encounter irrevocably alters her life, and Sol soon learns that sometimes fitting in isn't as important as being yourself-even if that's the hardest thing she's ever had to do.

However, both he and Sol are thrown for a loop when feelings begin to develop between them.
