Aria Starlight has always kept to herself, avoiding attention and trying to forget the past. But no matter how much she tries, it follows her-especially in her dreams. Night after night, strange and unsettling nightmares leave her exhausted, making it even harder to get through the day. Then there's Oliver Grayson-the guy who never seems to take anything seriously. At first, he teases her like he does with everyone, not thinking much of it. But when he realizes there's more to her silence than he thought, he starts to feel guilty. Wanting to make things right, he puts in the effort to talk to her, and surprisingly, she doesn't push him away. Slowly, an unexpected friendship forms. But as Oliver gets to know Aria, he begins to notice the little things-the way she zones out, the way she flinches at certain things, the exhaustion in her eyes. And Aria starts to wonder if maybe, for the first time in a long time, she doesn't have to deal with everything alone.
