Recovery is hard-especially when the eating disorder never shuts up. High school senior Cassie Durand is home after spending several months inpatient at the Phoenix Center for her anorexia. As the fall semester unfolds, Cassie is managing school with support from good friends Teagan and Brian. Still unable to dance, she finds an outlet for her creativity working part-time at Brooke's Treasures, a gift store in town. As pressure from her dad builds about college decisions, Cassie finds herself struggling as her eating disorder fights for control. To make things worse, there are no guarantees that either dance or theater-her two favorite activities--can be a part of her life again.
Maggie Richmond, her recovery coach, has found love with Tim Collins, the long lost grandson of Carl Pritchard, her good friend and neighbor. As Tim and his mom move in with Carl, Maggie is thrilled to see the family reunited and thriving. However, an attractive blonde attorney has shown interest in her new boyfriend, and Maggie is struggling with major self-doubt as her romance heats up.
Will these two friends find the strength and support they need to face their challenges-even when some of their biggest battles lie within?
