Collin Fitzpatrick has suffered from depression since he was twelve years old, crushed by a darkness with no name, living in the shadows of his trauma. A boy who's spent most of his teenage years wishing he wasn't living at all. When Collin's parents reach their breaking point, they have no choice but to send him to the "best mental health program" in New York. 
Margo July has allowed her bipolar disorder to control her life, manipulating all her relationships and destroying any possibility of normalcy. Margo's a girl with a wild mind and an insatiable need for adventure. Her parents don't send her to Orchard Hills for its reputation, though. They send her there to get rid of her.
So when the boy from 213 and the girl from 217 cross paths, they start to realize that perhaps misery and mental hospitals aren't all there is to life. But even the brightest lights dim, and Collin fears Margo July's light will either revive him or cause his downfall.

Skye suffered loss too, but she kept strong for the sake of her little brother, Matt. With her aunt and brother, leaving home and moving to a new place seemed like the perfect solution. A new start that they all needed. Skye's plan was to blend in and keep to herself. Well, not the easiest task when it was obvious as daylight that you were the new girl at school. Especially when she, literally, bumped into Ethan. For Ethan who has been isolating himself and absolutely independent that he pushed everyone away, and Skye being stubborn and not in-the-least shy on saying what she thought openly, fighting and bickering was unpreventable.
