Let me die, I thought. Please, just let me be with her again.
Last thing my eyes could make out is the glass driver's seat window shattering as my car made contact with the road. My face is wet, lip is bleeding.
My heart, barely surviving.
***********************************
Mark Lucas has learned to just shut down from the world. Shut down his feelings, shut down his heart, and shut down his mind from other people. His parents want him to live on their terms and up to their expectations, expecting high academic performance from him.
Lucas does not care anymore, the last thing he wants is to make his father happy. His father who has always been verbally abusive and who suffers from PTSD, a gift from his years in the Military. Everything seems pointless until he meets Olivia Monroe, a girl who's been forced into Isolation from reasons out of her control. The teens confront the values of independence, not being afraid to use their voice, and stop trying to please those that bring them down.
