It all comes down to who's by your side. Jamie was the last person Landon was likely to fall for. The daughter of the towns Baptist minister, she's serious, conservative and as far from cool as she could possibly be - and she doesn't care. Landon is the opposite. Aimless, moody and reckless, he has no plans for the future and no faith in himself. When a prank played on a new classmate goes wrong, Landon's punishment is to tutor a young student on weekends and participate in the school play, activities that are definitely uncool - and bring him into close contact with Jamie. With the scorn of his friends and, initially against Jamies wishes, Landon finds himself falling in love with her and all the things he isnt. Being together will test everything they believe in. Most of all, it will test the power of love and faith to transform a life into something worth living.
