Hannah Walters has always tried to blend into the background. She never had any desire to stand out or to be special. Ever since her mother died during her birth, Hannah's dad has been relieving his grief through drinking, and leaving Hannah to deal with the consequences. She has become used to the bruises, and has figured out his daily schedule in order to avoid him. But all that changes when a new boy, Ethan Crowe, moves into town. He takes an interest in her, and with every conversation they have, he gets closer to her truth. As much as Hannah wants to like him, she can't let him find out her secret, or the consequences could be deadly.
