Sixteen-year-old Cindra is caught in an armed robbery and sent to Montana to attend a reform camp, very different from her suburban upbringing. There she meets and falls in love with Lucky, a boy of mysterious origin, whose vast wilderness knowledge makes the two of them think they can flee and live off the grid in the wild. Then, Cindra is "rescued" and forced into a relationship in the now-stultifying suburban world with her so-called rescuer, but she never forgets or gives up the hope of finding Lucky and returning to her soulmate again.
