Callum Davids is East High's golden boy---perfect grades, star hockey captain, and popular reputation. With his arm around the shoulder of the ideal girlfriend, his life seems to be planned out for him: head for the NHL to play professionally and retire rich in the suburbs. All this changes, though, when he gets paired with the new girl who possesses a southern charm. It has been a year since Riley-Jane Stanhope moved from her small town in Georgia to the frigid mountains of Denver, Colorado, and a year since her partnered history project with the most popular boy in school. Her thoughts had never strayed from Callum in that year, and when she bumps into him again, sparks fly between the two, a relationship quickly forming and filling the empty cracks they possess. Can their love last through the trauma and hardships they try so hard to keep hidden? Will they come out of the dark tunnel better than ever, or will someone get left behind in the suffocating pressure it takes to wake up each day? **WARNING** Later on in the story, there will be a graphic scene of finding someone who has committed suicide. Please read with caution.
