For seventeen-year-old Kale Jackson, life has never been easy. In fact, for someone his age, it's as bad as it could get. Despite his attempts to remain somewhat optimistic about his plight, the relentless bullying he faces at school, and the deplorable conditions he's forced to live in fight him at every angle. If not for his roommates and devoted boss, he may have bit the bullet. Literally. When an unforeseen event forces things to change, however, his guarded heart struggles to accept that his life might be turning around. Especially knowing that he's in no position to try and make anything better for himself or anyone else. Feeling cornered and hopeless, Kale commits to killing himself. It might take the right person, at just the right time, to bring him back to life and show him that a little faith, a little love, goes a long way in mending a broken spirit and a cold heart. Even his.
