14 year old Lewis has no idea what really happens behind her father's closed office doors. Occasionally she'd hear screams or pleas bleeding out of the room. She thought nothing of it. After all, Papa had said that he liked to watch scary movies at night......right? 

18 year old Everest Brown is finally legal. Legal age, legal work, equal pay. Except for the fact that he's been turned down by multiple jobs and had to end up working in this old bookstore, facing a mounting debt, and being paid $2 an hour, he'd say that he's living the life. But when a chance occurrence happens at the hospital his mom died in months ago, it reveals a life he never knew he led. A life that he could lead once more, full of glory and splendor, for a price....

AUTHORS NOTE: Please remember that this isn't a love story about two random people who start falling for each other within a month (too cliche.) It's a mystery/awakening of a young girl and a guy who happens to be in the plot too. Don't ask me why. He's just there....
