Synopsis
A teenage girl. A broken heart. And a boy who tries to mend
it.
Butterflies. Little, fluttering butterflies.
That’s what fifteen-year-old Willow Flynn feels in the pit of her stomach every
time the mysterious boy is near. But Willow has other things to contend with as
she deals with the tragic loss of her father, as well as her emotionally
preoccupied mother, while being uprooted to a new house, a new school, a new
life, far away, on an island, in the middle of nowhere.
At the beginning of the school year, the
sickly, but cute Michael sends Willow the first of many cryptic notes during
homeroom. He stares at Willow and gives her the creeps. Michael never returns
to school after that, but Willow ends up connecting with the poetic boy on-line
where they strike up an unusual friendship.
As Willow attempts to fit in and find her niche
in the ever-cliquey high school world, she is further confused by Michael who
strives to win her over and mend her broken heart. But will he be able to,
especially when his own existence remains so uncertain?
