She's an orphan
He's got more family than he needs
She's a legend in the world of cheer
He's the best pitcher in the region
Blakely has night terrors about death
Jaiden had night terrors about living

They are so different. Polar opposites from each other. When fate plays a cruel joke on Blakely, she is forced to move from her historic and largely populated town of Franklin, Tn to small and rural Roanoke IL. While she's there she learns that you shouldn't  live your life according to the threat death gives, but because you never know when that threat will be a reality.
And it all started on a chilly night out on the mound.

"Talk to you about it?" I asked with a dark laugh. "it's not as easy as you make it sound," "Yes, Garret! Talking! You know what that is right? It's very easy! You just open your mouth and let the words that are in your head, come out of your mouth." "It's not that simple," I fought down emotions that were building up. "Yes, it is! See, i'm doing it right now!" "No-it's not!" "Yes!" "No!" "Yes! just talk, dang it!-" "You just expect it to be easy to talk about my dead parents?! About how guilty I feel for not visiting their grave for the past 11 years?! I didn't even realize how long it's been, I had pretty much forgotten about them for 11 years! Do you know what kind of guilt is eating at me right now!" I shouted in angst, my hands grabbing at the clothes on top of my head and pushing it into myself, wanting to just be shielded away from everything I was feeling, guilt, sadness, from thinking about more people I've lost in my life. Before I could even react, Keeley's tiny arms wrapped themselves around my torso. ~

They used my vulnerability against me. They used that weapon, to make me accept their stupid idea. And I of course, accepted it, I didn't even know what they were going to do. They tugged and poked and even shoved their disgusting finger in your wound, just to see you cry. To see you change. No pitty in their eyes. They just continue. They drag you around with metal chains, hit you and turn you into a experiment. But I had enough of the tugging, the clawing, the moaning, the crying and pleading for them to stop, but simply feeding them with our pain.

Ben's life turned 180 degrees when his mother dies in a car accident. Broken boy resorts to all kinds of stimulants so as not to feel pain at least for a moment, which in his case turns into a vicious circle. A year after this tragedy, as a completely diffrent man, he goes with his sister and her friends for two weeks on holidays to a summer house by the lake. There he gets closer to Rose, who is stuck in a toxic relationship. Over time, she shows him that the feeling of love is way better than drugs or alcohol. He shows her how big her value is and that she deserves the world. One day they find out the darkest secret of Ben's father, which will become a test to see if their feelings will survive everything.
