On an unremarkable night in San Sebastian, Spain, a young Nora Wells is forced to do something she never thought she'd have to do, and is forced to bears the scars of what she witnessed and what she did in her fractured conscience, two duffel bags and her 16 year old mind when she moves into a joint apartment with a guy she's never known, for reasons she knows all to well. Her roommate, Carlton, has a few dark secrets of his own as to why he's there. The kind no one wants to hear, the kind that would ruin him for good. After six months of tolerating each other, something starts to give as they each start to uncover each others secrets, growing ever so close as they do so. A romance ripe with mistrust, dishonesty and lies can't last, right? But what if the person who might have singe-handedly destroyed your past is your best friend? What if the girl you love is the one who ruined your hopes for the future? What if the person you swore you would never forgive no matter what, the person you cursed on rainy days, the person you said you would hate forever....is no one other than the person right next to you?
