Some people live their entire lives without changing their perspective.
For Allison Dennis, all it takes is 180 seconds...
After a life spent bouncing from one foster home to the next, Allison is
determined to keep others at arm's length. Adopted at sixteen, she knows
better than to believe in the permanence of anything. But as she begins
her third year in college, she finds it increasingly difficult to
disappear into the white noise pouring from her earbuds.
One unsuspecting afternoon, Allison is roped into a social experiment
just off campus. Suddenly, she finds herself in front of a crowd, forced
to interact with a complete stranger for 180 seconds. Neither she, nor
Esben Baylor, the dreamy social media star seated opposite her, is
prepared for the outcome.
When time is called, the intensity of the experience overwhelms Allison
and Esben in a way that unnerves and electrifies them both. With a push
from her oldest friend, Allison embarks on a journey to find out if what
she and Esben shared is the real thing--and if she can finally trust in
herself, in others, and in love.
