The romance is cloyingly sweet Charlie’s perfection knows no bounds. The problem is, she can’t bear to tell him about her illness, and it’s only a matter of time before he finds out. Soon, the two embark on the romance Katie had only dreamed of, meeting at night and exploring their small town. As fate would have it, Charlie is at the station, too. One night, Katie takes her guitar to the train station-a passionate musician, she longs for a larger audience than just her father.

A girl with a rare genetic condition that forces her to hide from the sun falls hard for a boy the summer after graduation.
