Shannon is just trying to disappear into the walls at her new school—anything to escape the bullying and chaos of her past—but her invisibility plan crashes immediately when she literally collides with Johnny Kavanagh, the school's golden-boy rugby star. What should be a forgettable encounter becomes something much deeper as these two unlikely people form an unexpected bond that neither of them saw coming. Behind Johnny's charmed exterior and Shannon's carefully constructed walls, there's a connection that runs raw and real, and suddenly staying hidden doesn't seem possible anymore. This is a story about two damaged souls finding something worth fighting for in each other.
