Mariah Upshaw was a diver. 

Slicing the ocean with every ounce of power she had in her. She was the best diver there was. 
But after her mom died of type 1 lung cancer, everything fell apart.

Mariah became depressed and suicidal. Every day she'd cut herself or try to overdose. And if it wasn't bad enough, everyday after getting home from a day of tormented bullying from her fellow peers, her dad would come home to abuse her. 

Over the course of 3 years after her mothers death, Mariah had stopped diving. But then one day, someone, her most hurtful bully, brings her back to reality. He shows her what she let go. 

And maybe, just maybe, with a little help from Adam Archer, Mariah can get back what she left behind all those years ago.
