Melissa’s most recent troubles stem from a secret: her twenty-eight-year-old boyfriend, Michael, has just broken up with her. Though the relationship is clearly over, Melissa clings to the memories, riding a relentless wave of hope and disappointment. Meaningless sexual escapades, drunken nights, and drug-induced blackouts help her cope with heartbreak, but her pain goes much deeper than unrequited teenage love. Her insight, sense of humour, optimism, and sheer determination prove to be saving graces, as is her ability to find solace in the Greek myths. And in the end, it is Melissa’s mother who proves to be the real victim of tragedy, and Melissa who must save her. Something Wicked is the story of a young woman who, surrounded by ugliness, seeks beauty in her life and in herself.

80 year old Serenity Maxwell-Reagan looks back on the story of her life. The lessons she learned. The challenges she had to face. The ups and downs of life. Including the tragic death of her mother. In 1950 just as her life seemed it couldn't have been going better, it got worse. 13 year old Serenity Maxwell-Regan's life gets turned upside down in a matter of hours. First her mother dies. Then her less than imperfect father takes her from her cozy home in North Carolina to his noisy inhabitable home in New York city with her half siblings and step mother. Serenity begins to adjust to her new home with help from Asher the boy that lives under her, and who she has unexplained feelings for, and her best friend Kassandra. She begins to walk through life knowing that just when you think it's the end of your story you begin to learn it's only the beginning. All that's left to wonder is will life remain this perfect forever? Then in 1955 just as her life seemed to be going perfectly things feel apart in a matter of hours. Once again 18 year old Serenity finds her life falling apart. As she's driving home to South Carolina she discovers she's in love with her long time boyfriend Asher. Who only hours later of this discovery proposes to her. Life couldn't have going better until she realizes she loves him but that she isn't ready for commitment,at least not yet. When she tells Asher how she feels about the engagement they call it all off. Serenity spends the next few years of her life trying to figure out true happiness without someone to hold her hand. The real question to ask about now is will she ever find love or will fate bring her and Asher back together.
