His name is Jason Adams. Her name is Jennifer Devin. If you put them in the same room — you’ll have a world of hell. Life hasn’t been the greatest to 16 year old Jason Adams. He has a lot of issues in his life, and even though he isn’t quite an adult yet, those issues left him on the streets. In other words, he’s homeless. But one night while driving home, 15 year old Jennifer Devin, and her mother spot the young man on the side of the road, holding a sign that no one wants to see a person at such a young age holding. Jennifer’s mother is outraged at the sight and takes the extreme risk of welcoming him into their home. Or more like, only Jennifer's mother welcomes him.

Can she keep up with her very hectic and high demanding life or will she fall through the cracks and lose everything she has worked so hard for? Will she have to give up her dream of being a professional dancer or can Jason somehow help her? And even though Jason has practically started over his life, will his past come back to haunt him? And when it does, will Jennifer get involved? His name is Jason Adams. His Secret — you don’t want to know.
