It's 1972 the schools are finally integrating in South Carolina. Things are changing and so are people. Hazel Grace is a senior at the new Laurens high school and everything is new to her. And the black boy justice she befriends changes her for the better. He teaches her things and opens her eyes to the human condition. It's like they can see into the others soul. Before they know it they are falling for each other knowing that they can't be together. Not in this time and place... NOTE: this is historical fiction and Laurens SC is a real place. Schools in Laurens SC did not integrate until 1972.
