Will she risk the fall and take a leap of faith? Vivi Lewis just wants to stay in one place for more than a minute. It's April of her senior year, for crying out loud, and here she is again, packed into a beat-up white Toyota with her anxiety-ridden single mom, fleeing the Washington coast. She hopes that this move-the one that's taken them inland to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho-will finally be their true fresh start. There's little to indicate this time will be much different from all the others...until Vivi meets Win Kemper at the city bus stop before her first day of school. Win and Vivi are a…mehr

Will she risk the fall and take a leap of faith? Vivi Lewis just wants to stay in one place for more than a minute. It's April of her senior year, for crying out loud, and here she is again, packed into a beat-up white Toyota with her anxiety-ridden single mom, fleeing the Washington coast. She hopes that this move-the one that's taken them inland to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho-will finally be their true fresh start. There's little to indicate this time will be much different from all the others...until Vivi meets Win Kemper at the city bus stop before her first day of school. Win and Vivi are a perfect match-both self-defined weirdos. Vivi trusts Win, and their time together is a whirlwind of cliff-jumping and paddleboarding, a life immersed in nature that would have given her, and especially her mom, a panic attack in the past. Their instant spark becomes a rock-solid friendship, and might be even more, if Vivi can stick around long enough to experience it. But having a reason to stay also raises the stakes. Running from their fears has never made Vivi and her mom safe enough before, and now everything she has to lose appears in sharp relief. Can she find the strength to separate herself from her mother? Will the burgeoning bond she and Win share be enough to get them beyond the last twenty-six days of senior year-even when the worst-case scenario comes to pass?
Autorenporträt
Beck Anderson loves to write about love and its power to heal and grow people past their many imperfections. She is a firm believer in the phrase "mistakes are for learning" and uses it frequently to guide her in writing life and real life. For Beck, the path to published novelist has taken lots of twists and turns, including a degree in anthropology, a stint as a ticket seller at a ski resort, a much-loved career as a high school English teacher, and a long tenure as a member of the best writing group ever, hands down. Beck balances (clumsily at best) writing novels and screenplays, working full-time as an educator, mothering two pre-teen males, loving one post-40 husband, and making time to walk the foothills of Boise, Idaho, with Stefano DiMera Delfino Anderson, the suavest Chihuahua north of the border.
