It's been seven years since Emilia Davenport's best friend left Sheffield to start a music career, and she's spent every second of that time trying to forget that he ever existed. It's been seven years since Alex Tuner took off from his home town to try and make it in the music industry, but now that he has, he wants nothing more than to go back home. And when their two lives meet again, they realize that maybe growing up wasn't as great as they'd always dreamed, and maybe everything they ever needed had always been right there in front of them...
