Carla has an average life. She goes to school, hangs out with her friends, and obsesses over her favorite band. That is, until a new student shows up and turns everything on its head. Suddenly, Carla's world becomes a lot bigger - and a lot more complicated.

On a journey through time, space, and her favorite songs, Carla discovers something about herself that she never could have imagined being possible. And it's all because she took a chance - and a leap - with the strange, new boy at school.
