Although Amya’s parents are both successful attorneys her life is anything but easy. Constantly ridiculed by her peers for her name and never quite fitting in. Her mother pays her no attention unless she is criticizing her. As for her father she hasn’t seen or spoken to him in years. Colton has had a rough life none more trying than the last few years though. He finally makes it back to his old school and things are not the same, he is no longer the same. Then of course who would be after having spent time in juvie.  Amya and Colton get paired together for a class and things move forward from there. Amya has a great group of friends who are constantly trying to bring her out of the little bubble her mother has kept her in. To say she has lived a secluded life would be putting it mildly. As Colton and Amya get closer they fall in love. To say their relationship hit some bumps in the road would be putting it mildly. To see these two broken souls come together to make each other whole is truly wonderful and makes me believe that anything is possible. This is a beautifully written story about young love and the resilience we all seem to have; I could not put this book down and cannot wait to see what happens next.
