Sisters Kameron and Ally Rose have had it rough. Between struggling with a disabled sister, an abusive alcoholic mother, and teachers that are out to get her, Kameron's got a lot on her plate. At only seventeen, she is expected to be the adult of her household. Juggling a job, school, and raising a young girl doesn't leave much room for fun or childhood. So will this new boy, Eric, really accomplish his mission of showing her a life different than that of her present one? She's never been very interested in boys... or really people in general. Her only focus has always been getting a scholarship and taking care of Allie. There's no room on her agenda for friends and especially no room for boys.
