Bronte "Emery" Majors life was constantly filled with the literature world and everything that comes with it. The love child of a famous Manhattan author and a world pronounced musician, Emery lived and breathed the written word and the musical tendencies hidden in between the lines. She was taught that everyone had a happily ever after, that you just had to reach your peak of the mountain at the right time. Her parents had conflicted feelings over chance and fate, each claiming one brought them together. After years of enticing the same argument, both her parents received their answer. It was fate (and genetics) that killed her mother, but it was chance that ripped Emery's father away from her too. In an upstream battle against herself, Emery withdrawals from her world, her parents literacy world, and more importantly, the one person who actually understands her unspoken words amidst her endearing silence. Betrayed by her mother's happily ever after, Emery tries to dig herself out of the town where her parents footprints and autographs stain every surface. She enrolls in college, somewhere new and untainted by her parents memories. But when she literally falls for an unexpected and past due shadow of her past, can Emery face reality and find her peak or will she run, taking her fragile baggage with her?

Caleb

Caleb is definitely a troubled child. Alone, with nothing going for him, he attempts to take his own life but fails at his first attempt. He desperately wants to try again but is put under constant supervision, especially by his new doctor, Dr Palmer. Dr Palmer becomes more and more involved in Caleb’s life, trying to help him see that his life is worth living through various methods. Eventually, the two build up a trusting and understanding relationship and Dr Palmer allows Caleb to do things that his parents would have never have let him do so soon after something so tragic. Caleb gets his life back on track, enrolling at college and even meeting a girl whom he used to know as a child. The two of them begin to date each other, and everything seems great for a while. That is, until Caleb remembers the reason that he tried to commit suicide in the first place, revealing a secret that shatters his new found confidence. As things at home begin to deteriorate too, Caleb’s situation goes from bad to worse. The only person who knows the truth, Dr Palmer, leaves him to stand on his own two feet, declaring him cured. He starts back at college full time, and becomes ever closer with Stephanie, the only person whom he feels that he can trust. When his own father attacks his mother, Caleb begins to think that the police are on to him, trying to unravel his past, thinking that they have realised what happened to cause him to try to commit suicide. However, they are just trying to build a case against his father. In desperation, Caleb tried to reach out to Dr Palmer, against the advice of his mother. As his life spirals out of control, Dr Palmer makes him realise that the only way he can carry on is to come clean and reveal his secret. In a shocking final twist, everything is revealed to be not what it seems, and Caleb finds out that he will be ok, no matter what happens to him.
