Olivia doesnât believe in psychics. But the summer before her senior year of high school, she meets one in an elevator.
This summer will be pivotal, the psychic warns. Please rememberâall your choices are connected.
Olivia loves her life in Silverlake, Los Angeles, but lately, somethingâs been missing. And after getting this strange advice, her world begins to change. A new job leads Olivia to a gorgeous, mysterious boy named Theo.
