Rose knew as soon as she saw the single purple converse on her porch that her friend Shade was gone. What Rose didn't know was who had the other shoe. Was it Patrick who claimed he no longer loved Shade? Was it Eli who was supposed to be Rose's best-friend but was secretly in love with Shade? Or was it a stranger, someone Rose didn't even know. How is Rose supposed to start Art School in NYC after Shade broke their suicide pact and killed herself in the middle of the night? But then at the airport Rose meets a stranger of her own, Dysan who is so much like Shade that it’s scary, he’s an artist, a musician, rides a motorcycle and has a pet monkey, not to forget that looking into his eyes is like jumping off a building. Will Rose let go of what happened to Shade, and allow herself to fall for Dysan? Will Rose keep her own converse on her feet or give in to the temptation to throw them off the Brooklyn Bridge? Does a suicide pact end just because the other person is dead?

The book starts out with Rose who is about to leave home to go to art school in New York City, where she thought she dreamed of going, but things have changed since she applied.

Rose's best friend Shade came home for Christmas Vacation and Rose couldn't have been more excited but then somehow they end up spending less time together than Rose anticipated and Rose begins spending more time with Patrick, Shade's recent ex.

Sure the same old group of friends still goes places together, but things have changed and Rose finds herself exiled from the group.

Which finds her in New York where she meets the cutest boy she has ever dared talk to Dysan.

The story alternates between her present with Dysan and her past with Shade and Patrick, until she must choose whether to stay in the past with her memories or move forward in her relationship with Dysan and New York City.
