amputee california connecticut emmaline grayson lacrosse love recovery

"Once upon a time I was a normal girl. Then 10 minutes changed my life. The end."

Emmaline Mayberi was your typical "California Girl". She had everything she ever wanted. Popularity, the captainship of the varsity lacrosse team, and an amazing boyfriend. But then a freak accident leaves her hopeless, loveless, and legless (almost). Because of her new 'problems', Emmalines perfectionist of a  mother decides to ship her off to the other side of the country, forcing her to leave the few things she has behind. So now, she's stuck in Connecticut with one of her mothers college sorority sisters and her stuck up son. His name is Grayson, and he hates her. In his mind, she is stealing his house, his mother, and his privacy. He finds out she is quite different from the other girls. She finds out that he might not be exactly the rich bad boy that everyone pegs him as. Even so, with the circumstances, they can't help but start developing feelings for each other. But the accident left Emmaline afraid to reach out, with 20 foot walls built around her. With the help of Grayson, her new friends Julianne and Callan, and the lacrosse coach Mr. Keagan, Emmaline may be able to be  herself, but Connecticut style. Unfortunately, she still has to survive the horrors of high school, mean girls, blasts from the past, and let's not forget she has to do it all on one leg.

"And who would have thought it happened like this?"
