Overview

A troubled high school senior falls in love with a compassionate new student who helps her navigate life and her parents' abuse. Whether it's for telling a teacher off or punching the boy who harasses her, seventeen-year-old Blair Simons is used to getting into trouble at school. Anxious and lonely, Blair doesn't trust many people as a result of being physically and emotionally abused and neglected by her parents at home. In her senior year of high school, Blair wants nothing more than to graduate and move out of her parents' home in small-town Michigan. When new student Andrew Stormant arrives at Blair's school, he brings a welcomed distraction to Blair's reality. Except, he's so focused on studying he doesn't have time to notice girls. Handsome and mysterious, Blair can't help feeling attracted to him the first time she sees him. He seems like someone she can trust, someone she can find comfort in. She resolves to get his attention by picking on him, a tactic that forces Andrew to take notice of her. Sensing there is more than meets the eye, Andrew meets Blair's antics with compassion instead of cruelty. Feeling unworthy of love after years of abuse and neglect, Blair is unsure of how to respond to Andrew's kindness. If she accepts it, she invites the possibility of revealing her vulnerability and risks getting hurt. If she rejects it, he will never know her true feelings. Blair must choose between trusting Andrew and having a chance at love or continue living the troubled, lonely existence she has been. And while she fantasizes about a better life after graduation, Blair has to make it through her senior year first. With classmates who like to bully her, her parents' abuse, and internal feelings of inadequacy to change her circumstances, Blair will have to dig deep if she hopes to overcome the obstacles in the way of her happiness-including herself.
