A normal and peaceful life, that is a dream that Nathan Hellman longs for.

Leaving behind his past and ill manners, he had moved to another school wanting to work on himself only to have more obstacles in the way.

A world where people are naturally accepting. To Ray Tripper, that is nothing more than wishful thinking. 

He understands that he, in some ways, is a hypocrite to his own beliefs. However, that doesn't stop him from wanting to trust and believe in people.

As they are still inexperienced with life, how will their beliefs change over time and what choices will they make?

Not at the beginning. Her parents were rich businesspeople who could give her and her three sisters whatever they wanted. But as with all stories, something changed. Ava knew that she was different from her sisters; treated like and outcast, dressing strangely...etcetera, etcetera. Her mother, a cruella-devil-type, treated her as though she was a mistake, unwanted. That was, until she created a plan to 'change' her, to 'make her normal.' This plan completely tosses poor Ava into a mess of a life, one that she never thought she would have. Will she survive this and find someway to make it work? Can Ava O'Connor brave the odds and turn the mess into an adventure? Well...you'll just have to read to find out. *There's not many parts but the chapters are long.
