Ever since the day they met on the rusted park swings 8 years ago, Isabel Torres has craved the approval of her first love and childhood friend, Sebastian Kim.
Their friendship crumbles after the passing of Sebastian's mother, when he hardens and subjects Isabel to years of bullying. After Sebastian tricks Isabel into kissing a frog in front of the entire school and puts her father in a wheelchair, Isabel decides to forget Sebastian for good. That night, Isabel wishes at a shrine to disappear.
Three years later, Isabel is no longer a shy pushover, having moved on with her new friends in her new school. Their lives change when they discover a vermillion spotted wishing rock, capable of granting their deepest desires.
Then, two months into her junior year of high school, Sebastian returns to her life, seeking her forgiveness. However, Sebastian Kim is now the brooding Abraham Silva, and he holds a cryptic letter from his future self. Soon, Isabel and her friends begin receiving disjointed messages from their future selves, clueing them in on how to change their fate.
As Isabel works with Sebastian to solve the mystery, feelings from the past bubble up, but she's not ready to forgive him.
However, the longer they fixate on the past, the more time they lose, because Isabel is turning invisible.
After a tragic event drives her out of little Hillsborough, NC, 19-year-old Meghan Greene finds herself living in a Manhattan apartment with her best friend Chelsea Matthews. Officially enrolled in NYU and wanting to forget about her old life in her little hometown, she faces challenges involving her depression, trust-issues, and a broken heart.
21-year-old Sebastian Hawke is a brooding, leather-jacket wearing, brown-eyed boy on the verge of losing himself. That is until he meets a girl by the name of Chelsea Matthews, who introduces him to a group of people who make him feel not-so alone anymore.
What happens when the girl who runs away meets the boy who's afraid to be left behind?
