Amelia Ray McKenna is an outgoing teenager, thriving in the social landscape of high school. With a tight-knit group of friends, a supportive family, and a life that seems perfectly in place, she feels as though everything is as it should be. That is, until Christopher Nicholson moves into her neighborhood. Amelia is instantly intrigued by the arrival of the Nicholson family, especially since it's not every day that a childhood friend returns home. After the death of Mark Nicholson, beloved father and wife to the Nicholson family, at the age of nine, Christopher and his family had uprooted and left abruptly. Amelia hadn't heard from the family-not even her mother, who was friends with Christopher's mother, Charlotte, could either. After seven years of silence, the family moves back in, and Amelia is determined to reconnect. But the boy she once knew is gone. The cheerful, easygoing friend she remembered has been replaced by a distant, brooding stranger. Known for her energetic personality and outgoing nature, it only makes sense that she would want to catch up with Christopher. However, the boy she once knew is no longer the same. The carefree, smiley friend from her childhood has been replaced by a distant, detached young man. He barely speaks to her and shows little to no emotion outwardly to anyone else either. Amelia is shocked by the transformation, struggling to understand what has happened to the boy who was once so full of life. As she watches him, Amelia begins to wonder just how much his father's death- and the years that followed- have shaped him. Was the grief of losing his father the only thing that changed him, or is there more to the story than she ever imagined?  One thing is clear though: Amelia, ever the optimist, is determined to break through the walls Christopher has built around himself- she had gotten her hands on a very grumpy Chris, and this time she wasn't letting him go.Complete
