While her mother builds a clinic in Syria and her best friend abandons her for a boyfriend, fifteen-year-old Phoebe lives with her godmother and discovers her own sexuality and vulnerability.
When Phoebe's mother ditches her to work as a doctor for an international human rights organization, she is stuck living with her mom's best friend, Kate, and helping out at Kate's thrift shop. There she meet Emma. Phoebe tries to shield her head and her heart from experiencing love-- after all, love is for losers, right? -- adapted from jacket
