Meet Ava Trenton. A shy, stubborn, angst filled girl. With two sisters like night and day, she has a hard time finding a place for herself to fit in. Even worse, it's basically impossible to escape her thoughts. Faced with the burden on insomnia, she's lucky if she can wake up without the feeling of burning down the world around her. Her grades are dropping, her friends are always busy and her job demands too much. To make matters worse, she can't get the new boy next door off her mind. His light stays on all hours of the night and he has a weird way of making her stomach feel like it's tied up in knots. All she wants to do is sleep, forever if she could, but she can't even do that.
Robyn is 16 and is starting her new school... Again! She is an expert in these situations. Ollie is 17 and oblivious to overly-lip-glossed girls following his every rebellious move. He is haunted with the memories of his childhood, and uses cigarettes and alcohol to stop his nightmares. But there is one thing he wants... Robyn. He likes her nerdy ways, her stubborn attitude and clumsiness. Along comes Milo, he's prepared to ruin Ollie's life to any extent as they are natural born enemies. Robyn can't help but see the charm and compassion every time she looks, speaks or hears about Milo. The little voice in her head and the small force of energy pulling her towards Milo. She can't ignore the his face popping up in her dreams.
But Robyn can't ignore the little acts of love from Ollie which catch her breath, or make the flutters in her chest stop when she is around him. But she needs to choose Ollie or Milo as she is drifting closer to them but is still miles away.
