Eighteen-year-old, Cara Lively, has been struggling with depression for almost half of her life. When things for Cara start to become more difficult than usual, her mother, Eleanor, convinces her to start participating in a support group built around teenagers suffering with mental illnesses. Within the support group, there are numerous kids either thrown in there by their parents or partaking by choice. Stiles Stilinski is one of the few members that has joined by choice. After Stiles is introduced to Cara and finds himself insanely interested in her unique insight on life, he realises that the support group is one of the few good choices he has made, since it led him to the girl who may just help him make a few more along the way.

Blue eyes. I was always a sucker for blue eyes. Every guy I've ever gone out with has blue eyes. I've seen all different shades. From midnight blue to so light that they almost look grey. But never have I seen eyes as blue as Tyler Hasting's. When you were in a room with poor lighting, they looked like any old blue eyes, not too dark and not too light. But when he is in the sun, they twinkle and swirl like the ocean. They have the obvious blue with an underlying current of green. It's not just his eyes that I've fallen for, he has dark brown hair and a chiseled face. His body isn't half bad either. I've had a crush on him since ninth grade, but I've known him longer. How do you not know him when he's captain of the football team, dating the head cheerleader, most popular guy in school, and did I forget to mention he's my best friend's older brother?

Lots of people are scared of him because of the horrible things he has done with his gang, and others want to kill him. I guess that's what happens when you're a leader of the most baddest gang around. What happens when there paths cross? Will it be for the better or for the worst?

However, all of that may change when she crosses paths with the supposed bad boy; Cason Michaels, and figures out that maybe she just had to meet the right person to break her out of her shell.
