Six years later, and she's still not "fine". She gave up all hope of suriving long ago but kept her cancer a secret from everyone but immediate family, keeping up a facade of being the same Arianna she was before- happy, bubbly, etc... instead of revealing her new cynical and pessimistic view of life. Then she collapses at school and the truth comes out- that Arianna Desalvadore, the girl who was perfect, had cancer. So she decides to unleash the new Arianna- the one who doesn't care about anything anymore. She is content with her decision until she meets Devin Newell- the New Kid. He wants to help her. He believes that she needs to let people in, allow them to go through her battle with her, but she is not buying it. After havng such a rocky past, full of secrets that few people know, who would? Will Arianna open up to Devin and allow him to enter her life, maybe even as more than a friend? Or will her time end before she has the chance?

Arianna Hope is a child of a rich family, but doesn't act like it. She spends her free time volunteering, contributing to charities, keeping a perfect GPA, and working from the bottom up of her parent's company to learn what it's all about. She doesn't like things just being handed to her (with the exception of her personal library) and hates the rich kids at school who just live off their parents, not caring about responsibility. She finally gets her parents to fund the building of a large and expensive library for her school, because their old one is tiny and offers little help with reading and studying. When the construction is completed at the end of summer, her friend drags her to a house party to celebrate. Arianna makes some life changing decisions and wakes up in bed next to the boy with the player reputation, and she can only hope won't remember her or what they did the night before, sneaking out before he even realized it was her that was there. Her hopes come true when school starts and things are normal, he doesn't remember, and she can live her life like it never happened But what happens when that one night creates a certain consequence growing inside of her? What happens when the player, Damon Parker has been going crazy thinking about a girl he just can’t remember? And what happens when a huge hurricane rolls in, leaving Arianna and Damon trapped alone together in their high school for a week while the hurricane passes and the roads get cleared enough for a rescue?
