Katherine Stone has one year left until she can finally leave the unstable home she's grown up in. The taste of freedom is so close, she can barely stand it. But what happens when the storm hits sooner than anyone realizes?
Ms. Rachel Pierce is a fresh graduate from NYC trying to make her mark in this world... she also happens to be Kat's new English teacher. What happens when two worlds collide in a dance of passion, love, and loss? Will they prevail or will the end hit in tragedy and heartbreak?
