Ruby is used to taking care of herself. But now sheÂ's living in a fancy new house with her sister Cora—a sister she hasnÂ't seen in ten years—and her husband Jamie—creator of one of the most popular online networking sites. SheÂ's attending private school, wearing new clothes, and for the first time, feels the promise of a future that include college and her family. So why is she so wary? And what is Nate— the adorable and good-hearted boy next door— hiding behind his genial nature? As Ruby starts to see, thereÂ's a big difference between being given help, and being able to accept it. And sometimes, in order to save yourself, youÂ've got to reach out to someone else.
