Ash Gupta has a life full of possibility. His senior year is going exactly as he’s always wanted– he’s admired by his peers, enjoying his classes and getting the kind of grades that his wealthy, immigrant parents expect. There’s only one obstacle in Ash’s path: Eden Moore—the senior most likely to become class valedictorian. How could this unpopular, sharp-tongued girl from the wrong side of the tracks stand in his way?
All Eden’s ever wanted was a way out. Her perfect GPA should be enough to guarantee her a free ride to college — and an exit from her trailer-park existence for good. The last thing she needs is a bitter rivalry with Ash, who wants a prized scholarship for his own selfish reasons. Or so she thinks. . . When Eden ends up working with Ash on a class project, she discovers that the two have more in common than either of them could have imagined. They’re both in pursuit of a dream — one that feels within reach thanks to their new connection. But what does the future hold for two passionate souls from totally different worlds? …more

Eden and Ash have been competing all through high-school to be the best. They both are the best in the school and they are trying to get into top-notch universities. Ash’s family is rich and can pay his way into school. Eden, not so much, her dad and step mother live in a trailer park and Eden has worked since she was fifteen-years-old to help them make their way and to save for university.
This is their senior year of high school and some things are different this year. Eden and Ash start to notice each other . . . differently. But Ash’s parents have him on a strict chain, he has to do what they want, he can’t see a girl from the wrong family – even though she’s the smartest girl in school.
Eden’s dad is a racist jerk who doesn’t want her seeing Ash either. They both have things against each other and it’s a really sad and beautiful story that plays out.
Also, of all things, a new student has arrived at the school and has taken up with Eden. Mundy is the daughter of the art teacher and she sort of just places herself in Eden’s life. You have to understand that Eden has no friends, she likes it that way. But this makes no difference to Mundy and they become best friends. I love them both so much. I want to be their best friends too! Mundy and her mom and step-dad are so much fun. These characters are wonderful.
Eden herself is a wonderful character too. She baby sits for a Mrs. Fremont and this entails her staying the night about three nights a week or so and then being taken to school when Mrs. Fremont gets home. Eden watches her two little children, Marta and Kurt. I love these kids and the mom as well. Kurt has high-functioning autism and at times he’s hard to handle but Eden is so good with him. He listens to her and it’s just so bitter sweet. He is the reason she wants to be a teacher.
Eden’s step mother is a wonderful character too. She’s always good as she can be to Eden. Her father, not so much. I won’t start on him or I will not stop!
I will leave it at this because you should just read the wonderful book yourself. I love the book so much and it will be going on my bookshelf. Once again, these characters are wonderful. So many of them melted my heart and the story has a lot of real life things in it. The friendships are real and written out beautifully. The love interests are written just as beautiful. To me, everything just flows. None of the book seemed forced or instant this or instant that, which doesn’t bother me anyway, but I digress.
The book made me cry some sad tears but more tears of joy than anything! Kudos!
