So when she and her mom move back to their sleepy southern hometown to start over, she thinks she's in for a life of quiet normalcy.

But what started out as an innocent way to make her best friend, Max, jealous soon gets way out of hand, and Willow begins to wonder if the mind - and more importantly, the heart - is something you can really control.
