Riley Evans, the embodiment of the ideal person; from being known to be drop-dead gorgeous, to perfect grades in every subject he's in. Of course, he's also from a picture perfect family. However, not every so-called 'perfect family' is perfect. Behind that million-pound smile is something darker, more fragile. In which the light escapes his eyes.
 
Eliza Bennett could not be more different, the two are like fire and ice, positive and negative, day and night and the sun and the moon. Now this sounds like it'll be a cheesy romantic story, where the girl fixes the guy and they instantly fall in love; but this is where you are mistaken, it isn't a love story. This is a story about the beautiful bond that is friendship. Who would've thought that Eliza Bennett would be the one to rescue Riley.

And I would return... one christmas five years later... and with me every feeling and emotion resurrected. Our teens were only the beginning because the journey to Alberta was about to span through our twenties and into our thirties. A journey home. *** Willa Jameson.
