Book Description
Maggie Alexander walks with a limp and lost a chance to study abroad after Caleb Becker, drunk behind the wheel, struck her. He's spent a year in juvenile hall while she's slowly recovered from the accident. Back home in the town of Paradise again, both are outcasts, estranged from friends and family. Soon, they find themselves drawn together as the truth about that fateful night emerges.
