17 year old Carter is a bit of a lost cause, yeah I know another teen story about a girl lost in high school, but this is a bit different. Her family broke apart when she was just a little girl. Her raging alcoholic mum is out of the picture and her dads wife Vicky is the most repulsive human alive. Feeling utterly miserable and friendless until she met a bunch of 5 people who will change her life forever, amongst them a very special boy named Josh
