After letting a rift carry them further apart as she stayed in the small town of Willow Hill while he sought higher education, nothing is the same. Kody has the weight of the world on her shoulders. Taking care of her sick father and raising her younger sister isn't an easy task, made harder by the chronic illness that continues to weigh her down. Since their friendship fell apart, neither of them has been okay. Without being able to ignore each other further their longing is far past the point of avoidance. With the help of a younger sister who has trouble up her sleeve, they have to not only come to terms with the feelings they thought would go away, but also how much they'd been hiding from themselves.
