When Sam's best friend Reagan dies after her heart suddenly gives out, Sam must learn to deal with her grief and ultimately discover who she is without her best friend by her side.

Fourteen-year-old Sam thinks she has all summer to hang out with her best friend, Reagan. But then her life changes forever. Sam's world, once filled with school, basketball, and Reagan, has now abruptly changed and she must learn to navigate high school on and off the court without her best friend.

But when Reagan suddenly "reappears," Sam clings to her friend's presence, even as it hurts rather than helps her grief. Can Sam learn to accept herself without her other half? This authentic, powerful story of friendship, grief, and discovering yourself is a can't-miss debut novel from Maura Ellen Stokes.

A great friendship story. A fine basketball story. A deep story of loss. What a fresh and authentic voice we have in Maura Ellen Stokes! --Marion Dane Bauer, author of On My Honor, a Newbery Honor book In Maura Stokes's debut novel, a gift is bestowed in the tender way that her hero Sam learns to muck her way through the most heartbreaking and inexplicable loss of her young life. This is a story, not only of the redeeming power of sports and teammates, but of the embracing power of love. Yes, it's a gift. --Kathi Appelt, New York Times Bestselling author of The Underneath, National Book Award finalist, and Newbery Honor winner
