Lay it On Me

Senior year is supposed to be the best year of your life so they claim, but for Amelie Trevino she spends this year trying to recover from the wounds of her past. Her story would shatter a thousand hearts as it did hers, but her story is a silent one because she chooses to never tell.

Keeping everyone at a restraining distance Amelie tries to navigate her way through her last year at a new school after willingly moving away with her aunt. She tries to remain in the shadows, praying and hoping that this year would fly past her- but nothing is ever that easy for her. However, maybe this is the year she finds the peace she's been dying for with someone she didn't know she was looking for.

Zeke Romano was not the boisterous kind. He was what one would call the perfect "triple C": cool, calm and collected. He was a man of very few words which everyone at Delmont High found very endearing. When he spoke, people listened. He had a nice group of friends, ones that he could trust but yet he still couldn't find it in him to tell his story.

He has a story, one he has recovered from of which he seals tight with a padlock and a thrown key. When the new girl Amelie finds her way through the gates of Delmont High he finds himself trying to save her from falling into the deepest and darkest parts of life which he once drowned in.
