Aria Montgomery has a story to tell. From an abusive father that won't leave her alone, a sick mother who's trying to keep her from leaving home, a whore of a sister that just doesn't know when to stop shagging, a homewrecker aunt that doesn't know when to shut up to the pressure of trying to get into art school, Aria wants a way out and is just at the breaking point. But this one boy seems to change her life. From having nearly the same problems to deal with, they become so close that maybe they're moving too fast. Their love story will bring tears, happiness and heartbreak. Is the end near for Aria or is it just the beginning?
