Book Synopsis: The last place Ryan Walsh should be this afternoon is on a train heading to Wrigley Field. She should be in class, enduring yet another miserable day of her first year of high school. But for once, Ryan isn't thinking about what she should be doing. She's not worried about her lack of friends, or her suffering math grade, or how it's been five whole years since the last time she was really and truly happy. Because she's finally returning to the place that her father loved, where the two of them spent so many afternoons cheering on their team. And on this date -it feels like there is nowhere else in the world she should be. But once she meets Nick, a boy from her school that seems to love the Cubs just as much as she does, but he carries a secret that makes Ryan wonder if anyone can ever escape their past.
