We often go through life, overlooking the feelings of others...
Hurting those who love us and being hurt by the ones we love...
We learn History in school to try and avoid repeating it, but somehow, we always seem to...
Hurt by her past and scared of the future, Peyton Weber goes through life just trying to make it through.
After her mother's death when she was twelve, Peyton now has to deal with the responsibilities of raising her four year old sister, avoiding her alcoholic father, dealing with the everyday life of being a teenager, passing her exams and still, somehow, manage to fall in love... With the right person.
And through it all, she'll have to realise that everyone else feels too, just like her. They feel pain, happiness, sorrow, grief...
And remember...
There's always two sides to a story...
