Katy has always enjoyed life in her small Mennonite community, but she longs to learn more than her school can offer. After getting approval from her elders, Katy starts her sophomore year at the public high school in town, where she meets new friends and encounters perspectives much different than her own. But as Katy begins to find her way in the outside world, her relationships at home become restrained. Can she find a balance between her two worlds?

Just one perfect night Katy gets the chance of a lifetime--she's been elected to the homecoming court, and there are rumors her crush, Bryce, might ask her to go with him. What could be more perfect? For one unforgettable night she would be able to experience life as many other teenage girls do--a stunning gown, gorgeous hair, jewelry, and makeup. Except Katy's Mennonite community prohibits dancing as well as fancy dresses and makeup, and her father would not approve.

When an opportunity arises that could allow her to attend without her father knowing, Katy must decide: Will she hold...

After this summer, Katy's life may change forever.

But when Katy's aunt faces a serious illness and needs the girls to run the fabric store, Katy's plans fall apart. Suddenly what should have been a summer of relaxation becomes filled with long hours at the shop. But then a Mennonite boy visits her community for the summer. His presence complicates her life, as do her feelings for Bryce, her non-Mennonite crush.

Seventeen-year-old Rebecca Robinson, beautiful and bright, arranges to meet her best friend for an afternoon of chatting, eating... and drinking stolen beer.
