Madison Palmiter has a plan for her life. To never end up like her abusive, drug-addicted mother. Hudson Monroe had a similar plan. To not follow in his parent's footsteps. Together, they form an unlikely friendship and bond over abusive upbringings, coffee, and panic attacks in the heart of New York City. They begin to mend each other with the promise of understanding each other and the thought of a better future, even with the bumps and bruises along the way. Both believe in hope and have faith in a better future, and they cling to their bond like a life raft in a storm of their own making. Born to be different, they find it hard to stand out when raised to question everything. Including the people in your life.
