    Nina has never really thought of her life as being different from any other middle school student her age. That is, other than the fact that she's lived in more states than most grown-ups, everything she owns fits into the van they travel in, and she takes care of her mom about as much as her mom does her.

    She's used to it, though. It's the way it's been as long as she can remember. Life was an adventure, after all.

    So when Nina and her mom started disagreeing on how, and where, they are living, she didn't think anything of it other than that she was growing up, coming into her own, wanting to put down some roots. The problem was, the more comfortable Nina began to feel in a particular town, the more her mom seemed to possess some desperate need to leave it.

    Was it that her mom didn't want to share her attention, or was there another secret Nina's mom was protecting her from?

    When finally the truth comes out, Nina was far from prepared for the heartbreak to follow. Nina learns the hard way that sometimes what we don't know doesn't hurt us, and often those we think we know most are literally complete strangers.
