On the first day of freshman year, Brianna Kelly is living the perfect life of a Christian dancer. Attending the best performing arts high in Nashville, with her best friend, her supportive family, and her amazing church by her side, and it seems things can't get much better. But then, that best friend, the one who's been with her through thick and thin since she was four years old, rapes her, then says it was both of them, and destroys her life as she knows it. With everything inside of her shattered and almost everyone she knows believing a lie about how it happens, Bri finally can't take it anymore and swallows a bottle of pills, leaving the house to avoid getting caught. But when a run-in with her favorite artist turns into her life being saved, she's left with her family and friends scorning her even more than before, and it seems to her there's nothing left but to try again. But Toby isn't giving up so easily, and soon, she's like another daughter to him. But is his love for her enough to pull her from the darkness and help her be put together again before it's too late?

When she was little, Alexis had it all. Rich parents who she believed in her heart loved her more than anything else, a huge house, a Nanny to take care of her while her parents were at work, and anything else she needed or wanted. And then, one night that she thought would be like all the others tore all of that apart. Now, she and her mother barely make enough to stay alive, their poverty heavily due to her mom's nights in the bar, forgetting about life. Younger siblings come, then leave in abortion, through Alexis's mother's love life, and the one person she'd actually learned to trust again is newly dead by cancer. And her mother has just remarried the person she used to call "Daddy". Her only real friend is the razor that stays in her pocket or on her arm through the thick and the thin of life. Then, while her parents are on their honeymoon after getting remarried, with nothing to do and oblivious of the religion... or relationship... behind the bands she's going to see, Alexis goes to a little concert by the name of Winter Jam, with no real concept of what she's seeing besides a love of Skillet, a bare idea of Britt Nicole, and the songs she listens to by NF on her way there. When a chance meeting with a stranger turns into getting drug to the meet-and-greet line for a not-so-chance meeting with Colton Dixon, Alexis has no idea that it will change her life forever. But with a leading of Holy Spirit on his heart, and a glimpse of Alexis's arms under her sleeves burning in his memory, Colton finds it impossible to stand oblivious to the downward spiral he can see in Alexis's life. But it's a spiral she gave into long ago, and it will take every ounce of strength either of them has in them for Alexis to rise above the world and into the arms of Christ.
