Max and Mitchie were always the best of friends. People around their home town in Louisiana liked to call them the "Ginger Twins". Mitchie has plans to make Max's 17th birthday the best one he's ever had, but disaster strikes when Mitchie gets in a car crash on her way to his house. Will Mitchie get by with just a broken limb or two, or will circumstances take a turn for the worse before they have a chance to get better?
