Beau is a troubled young man, distraught with grief over the recent and tragic loss of his Mother. While everyone mourns differently, he has chosen to go down the wrong path; turning to substances and lust to fill the void in his heart. And at the ripe age of 17, he has finally come to exchange words with mortality.
Belle is an academically gifted girl, kind and optimistic. She chooses to see the good in people, no matter the circumstances; which often, can mislead her judgement. Her love for others outgrows her; a facade so well played, that no one could ever imagine the horrors occurring in her own home.
Two broken people, united together in hardship. A love so poetic, is it destined for the books? Or will it all burn with one single match.
