Landon had known Jamie his whole life, but only in his senior year did he start to notice her. She was the Reverands daughter and walked around school with the Bible, so she wasn't too popular. Landon was pressured into running for Class President by his father. After winning, some school things were mandatory, like Homecoming dance. Landon had waited too long to ask someone and after asking everygirl he knew to no avail, he finally decided his last choice was Jamie, even though he'd be made fun of, it'd be worse to go alone and he knew Jamie wouldn't refuse. She was too nice. After the dance, Landon was quiet surprised to admit he had a good time, but of course he wouldn't admit it to his friends. Over the next few months, Landon spent more and more time with Jamie and had begun to fall in love with her, but there was one little thing in their way, Jamie was dying. And so begins Landons struggle with accepting the fact the first girl he had ever loved was going to die and trying to find a way to show her how much he loved her before his time was up.
