When Kara Jones was just 15, she had her heart broken by Jared Smith. Now she's 17, almost 18 in her senior year of high school. She hopes that when she graduates she can finally leave the hell-hole she calls home. So this year, shes going to make it through and then she plans to leave with her best-friend, Austin. There's only one thing standing in her way- Sam Smith. Jared Smith's older brother. He's back to town and he's here to stay. He's also her teacher. So what happens when they grow closer then they were two and a half years ago? Will she be willing to stay for him or will she continue with her plan of leaving and never coming back?
