"After they'd accused me of that I was happy to get out of the house. I couldn't believe they'd think so low of me. You wouldn't think they'd raised me for the last eighteen years or anything. You wouldn't think they knew me. Maybe they didn't, not really. I packed a bag of the essentials and told my parents I'd send for my stuff when I found somewhere to live. Then I got on a bus to the train station, picked a random city and bought a one-way ticket. I knew I'd made the right decision. I needed to get away. From my parents, my ex, my friends, my old life. I didn't know much about what I was going to do, I just knew that I couldn't stay in my old town, full of people who knew me and knew what happened and receiving pitiful expressions from the people who believed me or scornful glares from the ones who didn't. I was from a fairly small town, where everyone knew everyone. So I knew I wanted to head to a city, more dangerous and expensive but at least I had the guarantee that no one would know who I was. No one would look at me and know. Hell, no one would even bat an eye at me walking down the street. That was what I wanted. That was what I needed. "
After miscarrying her child, Mia's parents kicked her out of her family home. With no one to turn to and nowhere to go, Mia feels a need to leave the town she grew up in and start fresh in another city. Fresh out of school with no prospects, Mia meets Scott who just so happens to be advertising for a roommate. With no other option, Mia jumps at the chance at a place to stay and starts on her journey with a fresh start and possibly a chance at love.
