Sixteen-year-old Becky Walden has two big dreams: to become an all-state basketball player and to find a special boy to love. When she moves from St. Louis to a small town in southwestern Missouri, she meets Matt McRae.

Becky learns that love doesn't always mean happiness; sometimes it can really hurt.
