It's 2002 in sleepy suburban America, where life revolves around football games, mall trips, and burned CDs passed between friends. Emily Stevens has always played the part of the good girl-quiet, reliable, invisible when she needs to be. But when Jordan, the mysterious new girl with streaked hair, a silver Saturn, and a soundtrack of Michelle Branch and Avril Lavigne, leans against her car in the school parking lot, Emily's world begins to shift.
What starts with a burned CD and late-night AIM chats soon turns into stolen moments in crowded hallways, secret drives with the windows down, and kisses hidden under the bleachers. But in a town where gossip spreads faster than dial-up internet and being different can cost everything, Emily and Jordan must decide how much of themselves they're willing to hide-and how much they're brave enough to risk.
Sometimes the songs you burn say what you're too afraid to admit.
