Jonah Hastings thought she had life figured out.  
At the very least she thought she had her own life figured out.  An aspiring artist with big plans of going to an elite arts college come graduation, she had no time for distractions of any kind, and so far her master plan had been working just fine.
That was until she accidentally caught her dad making out with some strange blond woman.  A blond woman who happened to be twenty three years old.  That was only five years older than Jonah!
Thinking her dad had hit his midlife crisis, she decided to leave well enough alone.  Big mistake.  Because three months later, her dad announced they were moving halfway across the country into Blondie's home, and him and Blondie were getting married!

Follow Jonah on her whirlwind adventures in a new town, making new friends and even a couple of enemies along the way.  Join her as she discovers the true meaning of love in observing others as well as experiencing it herself.
