After the accident that took their parents' lives, Julia Howard and her older sister Jackie left New York behind and moved to Silver Falls, Colorado. Their mother's best friend, Katherine Walter, welcomed them into her home, offering the sisters a place to rebuild when everything else had fallen apart.

The Walters' house was warm and safe, but it wasn't easy for Julia to adjust. She felt like a guest in someone else's life-sharing dinners, routines, and even space with people she barely knew. Among them was Isaac Garcia, a boy who lived with the Walter family and seemed to have an answer for everything.

From the start, Julia and Isaac clashed. He teased when she was already on edge, and she snapped when he only smirked in return. To everyone else, it looked like harmless bickering. But underneath, something restless was growing-something neither of them wanted to admit might not be hate at all.
