It's 2002, a year after 9/11. It's an extremely turbulent time politically, especially for someone like Shirin, a sixteen-year-old Muslim girl who's tired of being stereotyped. But then she meets Ocean James. He's the first person in forever who really seems to want to get to know Shirin. But Shirin has had her guard up for so long that she's not sure she'll ever be able to let it down.
