Fifteen year old Marissa Anne believes her life can't get any worse. She has only one friend, her mother works overtime, and she lost the most important things to her about a year ago. So of course, when the charming, cheesy and too-perfect Leon Graeme invites himself into her life, she takes precautions to make sure she doesn't get hurt again. But when he finds out about her eating disorder, he does all he can to stay by her side and care for her. With his help and the help of her other friends, Marissa learns that maybe, just maybe, her life could be better than she ever believed.
