Audrey Parker has been metaphorically tossed into a cabinet for her whole life. Everyone's left her; her mom died when she was young, her sister Genevieve has recently moved out for college, and worst of all, at the end of her senior year she herself will graduate high school and move away from everything and everyone she knows. Sure, she has her father, her twin brother, her boyfriend Chris, and her chaotic group of friends, but she knows their time together is running out.
But not everything is about leaving. Some things are about coming back.
When the unbelievably annoying, terribly charismatic, musically-inclined, and undeniably hot Jack Golden comes back to town after years of being MIA, Audrey finds her life completely thrown upside down by his crazy adventures and dashing smirks.
And maybe he's the glue she's been searching for to hold her life together.
