∥December's life had always been, unique. She'd been homeschooled her whole entire life. She made no friends, her mother convinced her that books and skates were the only friends she needed. But when December turns 17, her mother sends her away from their small London home to live with her father in Orange County. Her innocence grows apparent from the moment she stepped off the plane, she didn't understand why she was there, but a few weeks later it becomes clear. One cool November morning she skates into the self-destructive path of Alan Ashby, a raging tornado of inner struggles. Despite being polar opposites, they find each other painfully intriguing, perhaps too intriguing. They create a list of things December's mother would never let her do, and made it their goal to do every single one of them. Funny how a list of 20 things can change someone so drastically∥
