When his best friend moves away, nine year old Jack Phipps is sure nobody can replace him in the house across the street...until Diane Riven moves in. Their friendship and romance takes us on the journey of their lives, to the sweet places where they learn to love and trust, and the dark corners where bullies terrorize and hearts break. It's the coming of age story of a boy and girl who discover that together they can accomplish anything, but that even true love has its limits.
