In the two years since 16-year-old Colby's mother died, Colby's grades
have slipped, and her father's nonstop work as a trucker leaves her to
fend for herself most of the time. When Colby's girlfriend dumps her for
a guy, it's the last straw; Colby is distraught and defensive, and she
further isolates herself by avoiding the gay-straight alliance meetings
at school as well as her best friend Van. Things begin to change for the
better when she adopts and forms an intense attachment to a
three-legged stray dog. Colby befriends a vet and finds a new love
interest, but neither of the girls has come out to her parents, and
Colby is reluctant to open her heart again.
