On an early morning bike ride, 12yo Peyton comes across a boy on the road. He has been hit and the driver left the scene of the accident. Peyton calls 911, and he is taken to the hospital. Peyton happens to be hoping to find a boyfriend this year, and she's looking for the perfect one. Gray - the boy involved in the accident - might be perfect - but he's unconscious. Peyton hopes that if she hangs around the hospital enough, she'll be there when he wakes up, or maybe she can figure out who hit him. Somehow, she's sure, he'll open his eyes and see her and *boyfriend*!
A cute romance (rather one-sided I guess) with a good amount of other drama as well. Her parents are divorced and she is choosing to stay in town rather than help on her grandma's farm, there are some friend issues, as well as "honesty" issues between Peyton and her mom. While the story contains a mystery, Peyton's hope for this boyfriend was the main story. A cute lite romance for 6th or 7th graders.
