McLean Edwards is a southern girl groomed to attend college to find a husband and believes joining a sorority is her destiny. All her hopes are dashed when she is blackballed and not able to join a sorority. Her vision of life changes forever and she is forced to question everything she has been taught. She struggles with her identity when she is faced with life on campus alone as a non-Greek. She makes a lot of poor choices, but finally decides what she wants to do with her life and stands up to pursue her goals, despite the peanut gallery. This book offers a rare moment where one can glimpse the truth of lost moments, bonds that were chosen and broken, the decisions that remain through time and distance, the fights, the love, the reasons why or why not, the true sound of laughter and everything in between the lines.
