Journal In the Wall

Melody is okay. Sure, her alcoholic stepmother and absent father don't make things easy, but the comfort she finds in books is all the support she thinks she needs. Bottling up her emotions, she focuses instead on the quiet observation of people, keeping her friends at arms length.

Kai is not okay. Lately, his life has been in a downward spiral as he gives up everything he loves - his friends, studies, and even the swim team - to protect his secret. His only solace is in the journal he keeps, telling his story in a silent rebellion against his stepfather and keeping his hope alive.

When Melody finds Kai's hidden journal, she recognizes her own pain in his words. Finding and rescuing the author of the words is suddenly the only thing that matters. Because if he can be healed, what's stopping her?
