Moody and difficult, brilliant and beautiful, Kes scared me and he protected me. He could be incredibly hurtful and incredibly thoughtful. He wasn't perfect, but he was perfect for me.

Aimee Anderson is ten when the traveling carnival first comes to her nice little town. She doesn't expect her world to change so completely. But meeting Kestrel Donohue puts her life on a different path.

Even though she only sees him for the two weeks of the year when he passes through her home town, his friendship is the most important of her life. As a child's friendship grows to adult love, the choices become harder, and both Kes and Aimee realize that two weeks a year will never be enough.
