Brazen Shaw Henderson is a complexed person. Most people spend their time observing her from afar, like a fire, far enough away to not get burned.
Nothing ever fits together with her. She's outgoing and reserved. Foreseeable and completely unpredictable. Good-humoured and reasonable.
Collier Holden seems black and white. His friends think they know him, but the only thing they know is the façade he puts on for most people. He's served a long sentence of neglection in which he was wrongly put guilty for.
Put together through a connection they never knew about, they become friends. When they're forced to understand each other through and through: their greatest fears, greatest achievements, what really makes each other tick - comfort goes out of the window.
Neither of them are prepared to air their dirty laundry in front of someone who's almost a stranger. Will this push them closer together, closer than anyone has ever got before? or tear them apart?
