After her mother joins a Buddhist colony, Bran is raised by her \"common-law stepfather\" on Bourdon Farms--a plant nursery that doubles as a cover for a biker gang. She spends her days tending plants, slogging through high school, and imagining what life could be if she had been born to a different family. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e And then she meets Peter, a beautiful, troubled, and charming train wreck of a college student from the East Coast, who launches his teaching career by initiating her into the world of literature and aesthetics.
