Her name is Katalina. But no one calls her that anymore. It's mainly Kat. It's all because her mother loved the Catalina islands on the coast of California. Her eyes would shine with the awe. She always knew there was more than just the waters tying her back to those small islands. But what it is her mother will never say a word. Kat's father died four years ago. Even though it was so long ago she still can't stand the thought of it. Still puts a knife through her stomach. It was a car accident that took his last breath. Why Kat goes everywhere with a bicycle. Her mother can't take their small apartment much longer and they have to get out. Her mom finds a cheap lake out out in the Orange County of California. She thought it was the perfect place it get away from it all. And it would have been just perfect but Kat falls for a guy that takes a different route than she ever thought.
