SYNOPSIS
( extended description )
Coraline Eastwood has always been that girl who never fails to do things 'her way.' Be it sneaking out of her house at midnight to go on a solo-tour to Spain or getting the summer job of a barista when she should be joining summer clubs at her college.
Rhys Crawford, Mr. Goody Two Shoes of White Oaks University, on the other hand, prefers being low-key. With A+ grades and a hidden talent for music, he abides by ground rules and lives up-to the expectations of others. Until he decides he won't.
A camping trip to the Sydenham Hill Woods brings together people who are apparently different, yet all the same. In one word, broken.
Rhys is drawn to Cora. Like a moth to a candle flame.
And just as Cora and Rhys develop 'unlikely' feelings for each other, the discovery of a stained past complicates things, to the extent of tearing apart their relationship.
