Their story is marked by an intense rivalry, as they have known each other since middle school and have never really been able to get along.

Despite their animosity, Zach feels a strong empathy for Aria and is determined to help her break out of her downward spiral. He sets in motion a plan to give her a taste for life again, but his efforts are often met with rejection and anger from Aria. As they navigate their own struggles, the tension between them intensifies, but Zach refuses to give up. The question remains: will he succeed in breaking through Aria's shell and helping her find light in the darkness that surrounds her?

Ava Carter has always been good at hiding her struggles. To her peers, she's just another artsy, sarcastic girl in a crowd of thousands at Westwood State University. But behind the sharp eyeliner and dry humor, she's barely holding it together. Diagnosed with depression and anxiety, Ava has been using alcohol and recreational drugs to numb the overwhelming chaos in her mind. Enter Jaxon Reed, the enigmatic "bad boy" with leather jackets, tattoos, and a penchant for skipping class. Jaxon's past is a tightly locked box, and he does everything in his power to keep it that way. People whisper about fights, arrests, and a family he refuses to acknowledge, but no one knows the real story. When a mutual professor pairs them for a semester-long literature project, Ava and Jaxon clash immediately. She thinks he's infuriatingly cocky, while he sees through her walls and calls out her avoidance tactics. Despite their differences, their partnership forces them to spend time together-and to reveal pieces of themselves they've kept hidden from everyone else.
