History has it that the only person you can truly rely on is yourself.
Milton Rose Mackenzie has never known this to be true until the brink of his twenty-first birthday when his world is suddenly flipped upside-down. In no time at all, he's lost his name, his secrets, and his family.
It's how he finds himself in a house with ten other people, all who have very similar coping methods to himself - but that can't be right, can it?
Having spent his entire life in the shadows, he's suddenly in the spotlight. There is no moving unnoticed in this house, around these people. There are expectations. There's... love.
It's confusing and tentative and heart-wrenching. Everyone hurts. But that's okay. It's okay because they have each other.
And Milton has no one.
