Ellie is frustrated the state shut down her Deaf boarding institute, forcing her to leave her boyfriend and friends to be mainstreamed back home at public school. When everything goes wrong on her first day at her new high school, Ellie quickly becomes the subject of hateful rumors and slips into defensive mode. That's when the principal pairs her with Jackson, a student who is supposed to help Ellie adjust, and yet seems totally full of himself.
Jackson has been avoiding his soccer teammates since some weird muscle spasms on his leg cost them a match. With senior year off to a lonely start, he's intrigued when he's asked to help the new disabled girl, thinking it'll be a commendable move on his part. But life ends up handing him more of an education than he bargained for. Little does he know, Ellie will be the person he wants most by his side when he learns that what his body is experiencing may be here to stay.
Exploring the onset of disability and what it means to build community where there is none, Anna Sortino pens a story about allyship and the inevitability of change, all wrapped up in a poignant, heart-stopping romance.
