Life could not be any harder for Joie Montgomery right now. Her mother is dead, her father is remarrying for the third time (to a horrible woman), and Joie's brain tumor is getting worse. Joie is convinced that nothing can go her way until she meets and falls for Peter Dawson, a smart, fun-loving boy who changes Joie in ways she could never imagine. However, when Joie is offered a modeling job that could take her around the world, can her love with Peter last or will she end up alone and miserable?
