    About this audiobook

    From New York Times bestselling author Luanne Rice, a sweeping story of a girl and boy, both troubled in different ways, who take off on a whirlwind road trip up the East Coast.

    Here are three things to know about Maia:

    1. Ever since her mother left, Maia's struggled with depression — which once got so bad, she had to go to an institution for a while. She doesn't want to go back.

    2. Maia's sure that if she finds her mother, if the two of them can talk about whale songs and constellations, then everything will be okay again.

    3. She's in love with Billy, the handsome, brooding boy who lives in the group home in town. He doesn't seem to know that Maia exists . . . until now.

    When Maia sets off on a road trip in search of her mom, Billy unexpectedly comes along. They drive up the East Coast, stopping along the way for lobster rolls and lighthouses. Maia learns that Billy has dark secrets of his own — and wants to outrun his past, too. But what will the future hold if they reach their destination?

    From internationally bestselling author Luanne Rice, this is a sweeping, stunning story about the surprising directions our hearts can take.
