All Blair Travis ever really wanted was an adventure. The posters hanging on her walls advertized far off places she could only dream of seeing with the life she led: living in her parents house, low-paying job, no college degree, no way out. 
When a tragedy strikes her family and living at home gets worse by the day, Blair takes her chances. Along with her best friend Ben, she goes off to travel the United States, leaving everything she's ever known behind. Along the way, she meets new and unexpected faces, encounters situations she could never prepare herself for, and discovers that there is no "best time" to go and live you life: you have to live it now.
