Sit up straight.
Cross your ankles.
Cover your freckles.
Only have straight A's.
Don't speak unless spoken to.
No internet.
No friends.
No free time.
No wishes, no dreams, no fun. Evangeline's world revolves around rules. Her parents have laid out the groundwork for every aspect of her life.
She is homeschooled, has no real friends of her own, unless you count her tutor, and has zero connections outside her parents social circle.
Eva is expected to go to lavish social events, smile prettily at rich boys, be Steven-Hawking-smart, look and act absolutely perfect, obey every command and never step a toe out of line.
Workaholic, self absorbed, money loving parents don't make for a loving environment. She's not like them, she can't stand it. They may be rich and successful, sure. But no human can live like this. A golden cage is still a cage, and Eva wants to spread her wings.
Confined to her parents rules and lifestyle, Eva can only bend so much before she breaks. She's 17 and angry. Eva wants nothing more than to write and travel.
Her only escape is her 18th birthday. She'd be a legal adult. She'd have freedom, happiness.
But it's too far away. They want to give her away to a man with a crooked smirk and roaming eyes. She can't do it anymore.
So she runs away.
She finds Logan, a boy of the projects. He's worn down and broken, but under the layers he's swathed himself in since the death of his mother, there is a lively, loving person. Genuine, attractive, and kind, he's Eva's first outside friend.
He can take her away and they can both escape. Anyone can go just about anywhere with a stolen 15 grand in their backpack.
Follow Eva and Logan on a 12 destination trip across the country and find out if their friendship blooms into something more. Maybe they'll both get the life they've always wanted and the love they deserve.

It was all unexpected. A secret trip, enemies to lovers, and it all started with a project.
Ali Scott is a 17 year old girl in High School. She has olive skin with emerald green eyes and dark brown hair. She is a beautiful girl, but she sticks to the shadows, reading or writing. Her parents are strict, wanting her grades to be perfect, her life to be perfect. She has expectations, but Ali has dreams. Dreams she won't let pass her.
Oliver Wash is a popular kid. He's handsome with dirty blonde hair and tanned skin. Girls obsess over him, being the Quarterback on the football team and all. However he has a difficult life at home. His dad is always on "business trips" out of town and his mom is a mess. Oliver struggles with school and knows he'll never be able to pay for college or to get out of town. It drowns him in fear, and he takes it out on sex, drinking, and parties.
These two hate each other, but when they are forced to work together for an assignment they realize they have more in common than they figured. And things take a turn as they become closer. As summer nears the two make a plan for the best experience before their adult life begins. And who knows what will happen on this trip... it will be completely, 100%, unexpected.
