Julie needs an escape. So she heads to New Orleans with her youth group to rebuild houses and pretend her own life isn't totally messed up. But when she gets there, she feels more trapped than ever. Desperate to break free, Julie ditches her paint clothes for tinsel fairy wings and heads straight into the heart of Mid-summer Mardi Gras where she locks eyes with an utterly irresistible guy. Play-It-Safe Julie knows a storm is coming and her group leader will be looking for her. But the new, In-the-Moment Julie isn't looking back... at least not tonight. So when Miles offers to show her the real New Orleans, she jumps at the chance. And in one surreal night they: dance the jitterbug on the roof of a five-star hotel, play Question Questions under the stars, share their most shameful secrets, and fall in love. The night takes an unexpected turn when a hurricane switches course and heads straight for New Orleans and the two of them must hole-up together for safety. As the storm gains power and Julie is pulled back into chaos, she finds that pretending everything is fine is no longer an option.
