"This has nothing to do with you. In fact, you're probably the only thing that's kept me alive this long."

When Taylor Rutherford wakes up one morning to news of her best friend purposely jumping off a bridge, she can't even begin to process her grief. 
When Jamie's older brother, Jack, comes to give her a letter from Jamie, it's all she can do just to keep herself together. 

Together, Jack and Taylor will embark on one last trip with Jamie; for one last purpose.

To say goodbye.
