| Abstract | Follows the intertwining lives of five teens whose world is changed forever after the events at a party. Adopted Black girl Frankie struggles to see eye-to-eye with her white mother--who would rather ignore a problem and preserve their "perfect" life than stand up for what's right. Jo just wants her religious mom to accept her queer identity--and is totally crushed when her girlfriend Frankie, the only person who really gets her, finds herself infatuated with someone new. Phoenix tries to find his place at the new school, and balance wanting to spend time with Frankie with knowing he also has to help out with his sick sister at home. Bella wants to enjoy the end of high school and just head off to college without a hitch. Everyone expects Frankie's brother Nick to be the golden boy, but even though he just got into his dream school, he's not even sure he's a good person. Each of their stories intersects when Bella is sexually assaulted at a party, and it looks like the perpetrator might get away with it. |
