Nate didn't lead a normal life either since the accident involving the death of his parents life never was the same for him.

What happens when Julie notices the boy in the back of the class and wants to be his freind??
Add in some crazy friends, lots of sarcasm,blast from the past, an unforgetteble night and loads of mystery to be unfolded. Is it the formula for a perfect romance or a recipe for disaster??
