Mia heeft een hartaandoening, maar bang om dood te gaan is ze niet. Waar ze wel bang voor is: het opsporen van haar biologische moeder in Spanje. Toch wil ze voor haar volgende operatie de vrouw ontmoeten die afstand van haar heeft gedaan. Kyle was altijd een feestbeest – tot zijn beste vriend omkwam bij een auto-ongeluk. Zijn leven wordt nu beheerst door schuldgevoel, en daar wil Kyle wanhopig graag aan ontsnappen. Als Mia en Kyle elkaar ontmoeten, besluiten ze samen naar Spanje te reizen.

Seventeen-year-old Kyle was blinded when a chemistry experiment exploded. His doctors don't know whether he'll get his vision back, and he's deeply depressed.

But now that she's become so close to Kyle, she's worried that if his bandages are removed and he sees her, it will be the end of their relationship.
