Poised on the brink of becoming a teenager, Kat Cruz rides waves of excitement and worry. Life's possibilities are on the horizon: her first bra, perhaps a boyfriend, maybe a job as a journalist. It all seems so close but just out of reach until her family moves to a ramshackle fixer-upper in a nice part of town and Kat meets the neighbor's son, Will Morris. Despite the sad sate of the house and a rash of burglaries in the area, one look into Will's golden-brown eyes makes Kat think that perhaps the move won't be so bad.
