A touch. A kiss. Her eyes. All of these things draw Jason from the shallow crowd of Westbrook High and into the chaotic life of Ilene Jones. She's something special, with thoughts and dreams and marvelous ideas. But things don't always work out the way you want it to, and with Ilene's abusive parents, constant teasing, and a brutal encounter with a college scout, things turn ugly, frightening, and things spiral out of her control. With problems of his own, Jason fears more and more for his high school love, the girl who yearns to be forever young.
