Autumn Fletcher's life is a mess. Her mother is gone, her father locks himself in his room when he's not at work and refuses to speak to anyone, and no one but her grandmother believes she can amount to anything.
When Autumn's family moves to the small town of Bakersfield, she convinces her father and grandmother that it's the perfect time for her to begin attending regular school after being homeschooled all her life. She starts as a freshman at the local high school the day February break ends. Autumn only wants to fit in, make some friends, do well in school, maybe play a sport. There's just one problem.
Autumn is blind.
But with the help of a few loving and supportive teammates and a track and cross country coach dead set on her success, Autumn finally finds a chance to be a part of something. Maybe she can be more than "the blind girl", more than just another burden for her family. Maybe she can fit in somewhere, find a way to do something meaningful.
Maybe she can begin to fit the broken pieces of her life back together.

Skylar Simmons knows ambition is the only way out. Journalism. College. The future. She doesn't have time for secrets, distractions-or the new guy with the criminal record and too many shadows in his eyes. Hunter Pritchard doesn't want attention. Not from classmates, not from teachers, and especially not from the sharp-tongued girl who sees through him a little too easily. But fate-or maybe just a cruel teacher-pairs them together. And when a school trip puts thousands of miles between them and everything safe, Skylar begins to realize Hunter isn't just running from something. As miles stretch and masks slip, Skylar starts to question everything she thought she knew-about Hunter, about herself, and about the line between right and wrong. Sometimes the path forward isn't straight. Sometimes it's unexpected, winding... and changes everything.
