Now they're seventeen, and their relationship has developed into something sweeter, complete with stolen kisses and plans to someday run away together.

Refusing to be cast aside, Ginny goes after them and is thrust into a world she never imagined, one filled with monsters and thieves and the idea that love is not enough. If Ginny and Kai survive the journey, will she still be the girl he loved--and moreover, will she still be the girl who loved him?
