'The moon shone brightly, illuminating the calm waters. She wondered if she had the ability to form tears anymore after everything. Her mind swelled of dark, heavy thoughts, just like how the night sky was covered by gloomy clouds at almost every inch. Well, almost, since the glorious glow of the satellite overpowered the overcast sky. That was when she decided, she would go in.'
Zara Allaire, a seemingly ambiguous but charming and sweet sixteen year old, restarts her life in the unfamiliar, quaint town of riverwood after an incident that formed her pessimistic view on life, love and purpose. Her planned-to-be boring life, however, takes a turn when she meets someone. Someone who leaves a significant impact on her, turning her quiet life upside down, of course in the best possible way. This is a story not just about first love, but about growth, dealing with the past, and the rugged, bumpy, vomit-inducing journey of teenagehood.
