Though their relationship is strictly forbidden, Devorah and Jax arrange secret meetings and risk everything to be together. But how far can they possibly go? Just how much are they willing to give up?
Devorah has never challenged her strict Hasidic upbringing, and Jaxon has never been comfortable around girls, but when they meet by chance, everything changes. The plot contains mild profanity and sexual situations.

For all the buildup about this book as the next Eleanor & Park, it didn't really deliver. Jaxon didn't feel like a genuine teenage boy, and it was difficult to believe that he and Devorah were truly in love with each other after only a few brief meetings. However, I give the author credit for not taking the easy way out with the ending.
