Spencer Evans has taken a huge leap and moved far away from home for college, even though it meant she would have to pay for school herself. Alone, independent for three years now, and a little sad, she meets Taylor Smith. He stumbles on her bus, drunk, yelling about how he hates his life. Spencer is drawn to him, and soon she has him sober and talking. They spend a long, magical night together talking about everything, alone on San Antonio's riverwalk. Spencer knows they'll part in the morning, but this is her one night to be herself and be accepted, and she plans to enjoy it.
