Smart, introverted, sensitive, and kind, Emma Goodwin is known for being top of the class, although she never brags about it. In fact, at the age of 17, the radiance she finds in everyone around her seems nothing but absent in the reflection she is presented to in the mirror every morning.
Dragged by the constant trepidation, distress, and fear of what seems to be an endless cycle of trying to survive in her unsettled mind, Emma finds in music an entree to a world where momentary tranquility frees her from her own chaos.
However, when she least expects it, someone unpredictable decides he would do anything he could to enter that little world of hers and to get to know her to the point where he could settle calmness and peacefulness in her apprehensive heart.
Being the first-born son of Howard De Loughrey was seen by many as an undeniable privilege, but for Damian de Loughrey it meant growing up cursed to a tarnished name, to the unrealistic life's expectations his father had for him, and to silenced traumas no one had a clue about.
Despite being seen by everyone as the spoilt rich popular guy, Damian was just a normal kid, trying to find his way in life while making sure he helped everyone around him, but forgetting he also needed help, in the first place.
Surprisingly, the so intriguing girl who used to teach him maths last fall would turn out to be the first person he would be able to open up to.
After all, sometimes we are just lost souls waiting for the right person to see us.
-Summer teen romance-
Isla Nova Dawson has always been the type of girl to hang out amongst big crowds of people. She prefers the company of a few people where she feels the most confident in. She thrives lost in the crowd, where she can confidently make jokes and laugh heartily at others that may not be that funny. There's no surprise why Isla has become some of the popular type at school- she loves being known by others.
Julian Hayes isn't a loner. No- far from it- he has a group of friends he plays baseball with and surf during the summer. He has family that he is known to hang out with. He just tends to stay away from big crowd of people where he doesn't feel comfortable in.
Isla and her friends find themself at this opportunity of a lifetime. Finishing off her Junior year of high school, her school offers resources to go on a trip with teenagers like her. Travel for Teens isn't a new concept but it is for the small town of South Carolina. At this opportunity, the group of people jump at the chance to get out and do something new which will no doubt be fun.
It was supposed to be fun for Julian as well but after plans abruptly change and thousands of dollars that cannot go to waste, he finds himself alone at the trip. Sure, he can go out and socialize with teenagers especially since they're ones from his school but he finds himself isolated from the group.
The teens throw a big party at the house during the end of the trip. The small leads to a boring night at the end. The teens find themself playing little games to occupy time.
"I dare you to kiss a guy you don't even know the name of," Isla was asked and soon she found herself kissing Julian. It shocks Julian to a pause, here he was sitting idly to a girl kissing him suddenly. Julian ponders on it, but then finds out that the kiss wasn't meant to be anything.
But will the kiss turn out to be nothing if life throws the pair together on many counts? Or will two strangers keep it that way?
