Talia Scott is a spontaneous Southern girl whose dream is to become an artist, despite her family's innate skepticism at her career choice. When she leaves her small town to attend Bridgeport College on the other side of the country, she meets Archie Morgan: a quirky, thoughtful boy who quickly becomes her best friend-and wingman. But Talia is hiding a secret that even she wants to run from . . . a secret that drives her out of Bridgeport after graduation, thinking she can protect Archie (and herself) from her own inner turmoil and struggling mental health.
Now, two years later, Talia is back. This time, she is on a mission to leave a coast-to-coast street art legacy, starting in the college town that first nurtured her love of art in the classroom. But she's going to need some help from her wingman.
Returning to Bridgeport means Talia must face her biggest fear: letting Archie and her friends "see" and "hear" the real her-the person she has suppressed for so long. Can Talia and Archie face their demons, forgive, and finally understand each other? Or will their pasts continue to haunt their futures?
