When 16-year-old poetry blogger Tessa Dickinson is involved in a car accident and loses her eyesight for 100 days, she feels like her whole world has been turned upside-down. Terrified that her vision might never return, Tessa feels like she has nothing left to be happy about. But when her grandparents place an ad in the local newspaper looking for a typist to help Tessa continue writing and blogging, an unlikely answer knocks at their door: Weston Ludovico, a boy her age with bright eyes, an optimistic smile, and no legs. Knowing how angry and afraid Tessa is feeling, Weston thinks he can help her. But he has one condition, no one can tell Tessa about his disability. As Tessa grows closer to Weston, she finds it harder and harder to imagine life without him, and Weston can't imagine life without her. But he still hasn't told her the truth, and when Tessa's sight returns he will have to make the hardest decision of his life: vanish from Tessa's world, or overcome his fear of being seen.
