From the outside, Scarlett Rose St. Clair's life seems perfect. She's rich and beautiful, with a perfect family.
Except it's not perfect. Her dad left her when she was six, her mother is addicted to money and men, and her new stepfather is a creep and a cheater. To top it all off, Scarlett's got addictions of her own that are getting harder to hide.
Jade Bennett, Scarlett's ex-best friend, hasn't ever had it easy. Her mother committed suicide when she was young and her father's an alcoholic who never works. Money was something she never had, something she had to work her ass off for.
But the drugs make it easy for her. They numb everything else, all the pain and sadness until there's nothing left but joy.
Jade and Scarlett are connected again through their dealer, and together they navigate through high school, friendships, relationships, family, and bad decisions.
But their health is deteriorating. Their lives are slowly changing, and not for the better. Will they be able to find themselves again - through each other?
