Ashton Jones has never been normal, even if she looks it. She's been alive for 156 years, and personifies the city of Seattle, Washington.
But of course, that doesn't stop her from meeting humans, and even falling in love with them, which turns out to be her downfall when she meets Adam Young, a boy who seems to understand her better than she understands herself. And when Ashton is in a state such as that which she meets him in, understanding is nothing short of a blessing.
But more important than understanding is help, and when gentle giant Ivan, the personification of Russia, starts to play a larger part in Ashton's life, he offers her both.
Will Ashton be able to break through his reputation to find the real Ivan, just a sweet, misunderstood boy in need of someone who will love him back? Or will she settle for charming and friendly introvert Adam instead?

-Excerpt-
"Having Asperger's is like being a tiny sailing boat in a big stormy sea," Noah says in his deep voice.
"A boat like this one?"
"Yes, except the sky is dark with storms all around and huge waves."
"I don't like storms, I go to mom's room when a storms come and..and," he frowns at Noah, worry spreads across his little face. "You should go to my mom's room when storms come. You can hide under the covers. She says it's ok for big boys to be scared sometimes." Noah holds his breath in a valiant attempt not to laugh.
"Eh, baby, he's a bigger boy so, he braves the storms," I say to him.
"But the sea is real big mom." His wide eyes look around the boat. The big blue sea goes on for miles in both directions, not a soul except for Noah, my son, my daughter, and myself.
He's right it is lonely.
