A boy desperate to hold on, a girl ready to let go. Fitz Holton has made up his mind. He’ll attend college close to home and care for his single mom while she battles early-onset Alzheimer’s. Spending ten days touring out-of-state colleges is wildly unnecessary, not to mention a colossal waste of time. If it were anyone but his mother asking, he’d stay home over winter break. Juniper Ramírez is counting down the days until she can leave her crowded home with five younger siblings and zero privacy. Against the wishes of her tight-knit family, Juniper plans her own college tour with one goal in mind: get out. When Fitz and Juniper cross paths on their first stop in Boston, they're at odds from the moment they meet. Then their tours overlap again in Providence. Then New York. With every unexpected meeting, Fitz and Juniper begin to realize finding each other might just be the first step toward finding themselves, and a love that carries them out of the past, and into a wide open future.
