Unable to cope with the path life has thrown them down, she turns to self-harm and shuts everyone out... including her little sister who adores her. Her mother takes notice and encourages her to find new friends- or hobbies- because her sister really needs her.
While out with her sister, she bumps into the most interesting, yet confusing, person she has ever met. Will this be a lifelong friendship-maybe more? Or will this be the last chapter of a book she never got to read?
