Socially anxious teenager, Daisy Davidson braves another new start when her family moves on again.
She begins the next college, terrified about struggling to fit in, but also keen to pursue her love of music.
An awkward encounter with gorgeous fellow harpist Giorgio followed by a put down by Lucy, leader of the college clique leaves Daisy feeling like her worst fears have materialised.
Her best friend, Jonno, is travelling the world and staying in touch is a challenge so Daisy feels very alone, until plain-speaking Grace befriends her.
After a freak accident and more challenges Daisy worries her tentative steps towards making new friends will be thwarted. However, her friendship with Grace deepens and her interest in Giorgio develops after a rowing competition and an invitation to Church.
Harp practice with Giorgio leads to her riding a rollercoaster of emotions, perplexed by his frequent elusiveness and confused about her priorities. After a chat with Jonno, who finally has a signal, Daisy has choices to make.
Fighting to face her fears, embrace opportunities and manage her emotions Daisy wonders if she'll ever find the courage to let go and trust God's promise of plans for hope and a good future.
