Reality is often a cruel, harsh, disappointed world, Gillian Pittsburg understands this all too well.
As a writer, she has always had a disregard for reality, but when you are constantly in your own 'mind', it is easy to become 'lock'ed. Surrounded by what she believes to be her superficial friends, the lines between reality and fiction begin to blur. Reality becomes non-existent and the society around her becomes extinct.
Can she escape the clutches of her own imagination or will she be forever trapped in a 'mindlock'.

The two meet in their freshmen year, with little in common but their social circles. Violet spends her days numb - hiding from the pain in any way she can. Rio runs from his. He's out from dawn to dusk, if not on the court, then scrounging up money for food or finding somewhere to sleep other than his car. What divides them most... is hope. Rio has it.
