The Way Things Work

Asha Feu is a young aspiring musician. She is a prodigy on the piano, loves to play. But her life is far from normal, her mothers dead, and her father is a paranoid schizophrenic- so she never knows what’s next: a slap or a hug. Yet he’s sane enough to allow her piano lessons. She’s trapped and needs help. She needs out.

Nick Fort is a young aspiring hockey player. He’s also the schools “It” boy, or player. All the girls want him, and the guys want to be him. He’s got money, power, and talent; but no family. Not one he can count on. He’s an only child, and his parents are never there. He’s at a dead end, and he’s looking for a new road.

When Nick and Asha get paired up in AP History, they realize there’s more to each other than what they think. She’s scarred, mentally and physically. He’s alone, and needs help. But they both need to over come their fear of love. Can they help each other?
