Completed. Zoe Hunter is used to getting by on her own. She's used to bearing the weight of the normal responsibilities that should fall on a parent, the responsibilities that were too much for her mother to handle once her dad left. Zoe is used to her mom disappearing for a few weeks at a time. While it's not the ideal life to live, Zoe gets by in the back of her car, digging for change in between the seats when she needs money for gas. But nobody else seems to see it from her point of view. When Zoe's mom leaves and doesn't come back, it's time for an adult to step in. In the blink of an eye, Zoe finds herself moving to the opposite end of the country to live with her dad, the man who lost all credit when it was revealed that he'd been carrying on with multiple women spread across the country. Thrown into a completely unknown culture, Zoe struggles to adjust to the life she's forced to live. But is a simple change of scenery enough to change someone's character?
