Sixteen-year-old Madelyn Brooks. Homeschooled and quietly battling her body image, she's spent most of her life feeling invisible, tucked away in her room, cut off from the world. That is, until Malakai Larson, her brother's best friend with the easy smile and gentle eyes, starts dropping by more often. He asks about her day, notices the things no one else does, and piece by piece she begins to realize she was never meant to be invisible.
Seventeen-year-old Malakai Larson. Malakai is the complete opposite of Madelyn, effortlessly popular, fearless, the kind of guy who never hesitates to fight back. Madelyn tells herself to stay away, but Malakai reads her too easily, cuts through her defenses. She's been hiding in the dark and he's the first person to actually notice.
As their worlds begin to overlap, Madelyn and Malakai realize that perfection can be a mask, and the people who wear it best are often the ones harboring the deepest scars.
