Sick of living under her dad's rules, Emerson Bender bolts when she's eighteen. On her own for the first time, she heads to the only place her mom ever lived—New York City—desperate to find the woman who dropped her off on her dad's doorstep.

Content to spend the rest of his life in Small Town, Pennsylvania, Price Barnes is plucked out of his idyllic life by his estranged father. Missing his mom and stepfather, he's dropped in New York City to attend college and live an all-expenses paid lifestyle. Cushy, right? But not the life he wanted.

She's looking to fill a hole in her heart, and he's looking to forget the man who disrupted his life. Together, they're both wandering, looking for acceptance and hoping to forget the rejection.
