Seventeen-year-old Erin Morgan has fallen head over heels for Drew Connor, the new guy in her small North Carolina town. It's not long, however, before a relapse in Drew's mental illness rocks their seemingly perfect relationship to its very core.
Reeling from the fallout, Erin turns to the comfort of her loving family and her two lifelong best friends. Yet even their support and sense of humor might not be enough to save her from the whirlwind of her junior year . . . especially when those relationships are also changing.
Add drunken confessions, a misguided spying mission, and shocking revelations to the mix, and soon Erin's own mental well-being is in jeopardy.
Though she comes to expect the unexpected, nothing prepares her for the fateful late-night encounter that sends her already teetering world into orbit.
Life's full of surprises, but can Erin survive the ups and downs, or will the ride pull her and Drew under?
