Jaynie is a kind, good-hearted, seventeen year old girl. Her childhood has left an imprint on her life that holds her back. She is so used to disappointment and loneliness, that she doesn't realize she craves validation. So when one of her poems is discovered in the school and people start to relate, she finds friends she could never have hoped for. And when she bonds with Finley, someone as nerdy as her, her life changes.
