Summary

Nore Jenkins has had a not so easy life. She has grown up with a disability called Cerebral Palsy. As if that isn’t hard enough, when a tragic accident takes the love of her life and his daughter from her, and lands her into an extensive rehab, she spirals into a very bad state of mind. While trying to rebuild her life, she lands a job at Somerset Middle School.

Finally landing her dream job as a teacher, she begins to see that everything is not all peachy keen when she is presented with a student that has less than favorable living quarters. Can she save this girl before her circumstances take her under?

At 13 years old, Korey is forced to make her own life decisions after being placed with her aunt, upon her parents’ tragic death. Korey has a very hard time knowing what love and security feels like, therefore she makes decisions that could be detrimental. Attending Somerset Middle School, she has no desire to make friends or be happy. One day, Nore Jenkins walks into the classroom, changing her life forever.

These two people need each other more than they know, will they fight against all the odds to grant themselves the life they both deserve? Or will the claws of Somerset Middle drive them apart?
