Will young love be enough, or will the cost be too great?
High school junior Jessica Cordel is angry and entitled. A family scandal, her parents’ divorce, and moving from the city to a small town has her feeling like her world is spinning out of control. Thrown into circumstances and emotions that feel too big for her teenage heart to navigate, she lashes out at a world she feels is untrustworthy—and seeks the love she craves from all the wrong places.
Joe Colby is the boy next door, the golden child of his small town, and the only son in his family full of girls. The high school senior has big plans for his future that include football and faith. But when he runs into Jessica in a chance meeting at the local convenience store, the teens find themselves on an unlikely path neither of them expected.
As they face the challenges of high school drama, broken family relationships, and young love, Joe is desperate to help his new girlfriend find hope. He takes bold risks to share his strong faith with Jessica, but will it be enough?
Fighting to stay together, they stumble down a path of desperate choices, heart-wrenching sacrifices, and the realization that true love sometimes means letting go.
