Living on the roof to escape her crazy family works...until reality pulls Joyce back to the ground...
Joyce has had it with her family (especially with UFO-sighting Elaine who loves her guinea pig more than her own sister). Her solution? Move out of the house and pitch a tent on the roof for the summer. But when she spots a boy watching her from a neighboring roof she's stunned--and intrigued.
