Mel is a lost girl - alone save for the speech team and drama friends she has.

Her home isn't any better - she spends most of her time shielding insults from her dad and raising her brothers and sister. She's just counting down the days until she turns 18.

Then Mel meets Peter, a new kid with golden eyes and a magical, mysterious personality. When they meet, Mel learns new things about herself and her mother that change her life in ways she never could have imagined.
