Kate has just graduated High School and has her whole life ahead of her. She has a boyfriend who is about to be a huge rock star and they're about to leave to go on a tour that she coordinated. Everything is great……….until Kate finds out that her Dad has Huntington's Disease and she may get it too. Her boyfriend can't deal, so he dumps her and now she's stuck at home taking care of her sick Father.This story is about Kate coming to terms with the fact that she could die. What's the point of starting and going on with a life that will be cut short? Then she meets Lachlin. He is so full of life and he teaches Kate that it's the little things in life that are important.This story deals with some heavy, real life issues and the tears come more than once. Kate goes thru all of the emotions that someone dealing with the possibility of dying of such an awful disease would go through. She's angry, scared and depressed. But it's also a beautiful story about learning to love life and not take anything for granted. It's not all gloom and doom. There are a lot of funny, light-hearted moments in the story. Much like the roller coaster that is real life, we get the good and the bad of the life.
