He was just another New York stranger-until he wasn't.
After her mom dies suddenly, seventeen-year-old Charlotte is sent to New York to live with her older brother Calum-a college student barely keeping his own life together. Grieving, lost, and stuck between who she was and who she's becoming, Charlotte is just trying to survive her senior year.
Then there's Luke-Calum's best friend, the quiet guy from the elevator, the one Charlotte never expected to care about.
But grief changes things. So does love.
As Charlotte navigates toxic relationships, buried trauma, and the slow, painful process of healing, she starts to realize that maybe home isn't where you're from-it's who stays.
This is a story about loss, love, and starting over.
Even after everything.

Five // Calum Hood
19 Year old Sienna Summers has struggled with mental illnesses as long as she can remember. When she moves to Sydney, Australia in hopes of escaping her troubled past a certain raven haired, neighbor boy is determined to get her to open up about her past whether good or bad. "I've read the poems about love making the voices stop. The tics quieting for just a moment, but if anything they get louder. Those demons find the one thing that you love the most and they will use it against you until they have you graveling on your knees for mercy. The movies and books tell you a love will fix it all, but it won't. That's why they call it fiction." Cover Credit: @sonderess // complicashton.tumblr.comComplete
