To avoid being sent to a group home, 16-year-old Kaylin ran away in hopes of finding her birth parents. Instead, she ends up staying in shelters and not getting up the nerve to look for the people who gave her up at birth.

One night she arrives too late at the shelter to get a spot and ends up wandering around town. That's when she meets Lance and one lie changes her whole life. When confronted with the consequences of her actions and the family she's been searching for, Kaylin runs away again.

When Kaylin finally gets connected with her birth family, she gets a lot more than she bargained for. She makes a quick decision to help her navigate her new life. Before she knows it, Kaylin is settling into life with a family she wasn't sure she'd ever have.
