Cole Porter knows his home life isn't ideal, but when a situation arises and he's forced to pack up and move on, he realizes it's better to be in a position where you understand the ins and outs rather than to be tossed into the unknown. Emory Montgomery is as close to perfect as she can possibly be-good grades, beautiful, poised, popular-but having it all isn't always enough. Perfect has its drawbacks, and even the most flawless people crack under its pressure. There are people who come into our lives for a reason, when everything else is shattered, burned, and bruised. Sometimes their purpose is clear, but often the smoke and the brokenness conceal the light.(Young Adult, but some might deem it to be MATURE Young Adult due to themes within the novel.).--Provided by publisher
