★ “Tender, amazingly hopeful . . . vibrant and heartbreaking.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review
This deeply felt, redemptive novel reveals the story of two teens whose lives intersect in unexpected ways that explose them to both the dark corners and hidden joys of life’s journey–and the remarkable resilience of the human soul.
Meet Jordy. He’s on his own in New York City. Nobody to depend on; nobody dependingon him. And it’s been working fine.
Until this girl comes along. She’s 18 and blondand pretty–her world should be perfect. But she’s seen things no one should eversee in their whole life–the kind of things that break a person. She doesn’t seembroken, though. She seems . . . innocent. Like she doesn’t know a whole lot. Onlysometimes she does.
The one thing she knows for sure is that the world is an uglyplace. Now her life may depend on Jordy proving her wrong. So they hit the road todiscover the truth–and there’s no going back from what they find out.
