Ava should be living her dream as the drummer for Escaping Indigo. The problem is, she's secretly in love with her bandmate, Tuck. But he's fallen for someone else. Being a drummer is still the best, but for Ava, every day is also a reminder of what she can't have.

With her grandmother moving into assisted living, Ava figures it's a good time to head home and help out. And if it lets her get some distance from Tuck and his girlfriend, all the better. But Ava hasn't visited her family in years, and home isn't really home anymore. Instead, it's the place she's been running from, full of memories of everything her parents wanted for her—and everything she didn't want for herself.

But on the airplane, Ava meets Cara, and the two women feel an immediate connection. And when they bump into each other a second time, it seems like fate. Cara offers Ava something she's never had—someone to love who loves her back. But to be with Cara, Ava may have to change her whole life around, and that's something she's not sure she's ready for.
