Smile. Pretend to belong. And never, EVER raise suspicion. Your family depends on it. Everest Nathan "Nate" Decker is barely hanging on, desperate to hold on to the few fires in his life he can control. Being the teacher's pet, designated driver for secret therapy appointments for his non-binary sibling, and cooking dinner? Not a problem. What is a problem though, is the inexplicable disappearance of his best friend Javi from his life. Javi has been the sole anchor in Nate's overwhelming blur of responsibility, social charades, and drinking his nightmares away and keep convincing those around him that he got it under control - mostly Nate himself. But when a person from his past appears and threatens to take away the ones he holds closest to his heart, he has to stand up and fight like never before. He has to pick up the pieces he scrambled together over years of neglect, and face the patchwork of trauma, hurt and relationships that build him. He knew he was broken. But now he is deciding for the first time to live for himself.
