Growing up in a toxic environment, sixteen-year-old Jay Foster has always had psychological problems, coupled with a quick temper. But one night something happens which finally pushes him over the edge, and as a result, he leaves his house the next morning with two things: his mother's gun and a plan. Living with a neglectful and drug addicted mother wasn't easy for Jay, and it definitely didn't help that his father abandoned the family while he was still a child. He harbored a hatred toward his parents, and that hatred extended to almost everyone and everything around him, producing a very troubled and damaged young kid. As Jay enters high school, he becomes very intrigued with one of his classmates. Kind of obsessed, actually. Her name: Mikayla Keeler. Mikayla is very unique, and like Jay, she doesn't seem to fit in with her contemporaries. Instead, the two of them keep each other company, and their friendship very quickly escalates into a romantic and intimate relationship. Despite having Mikayla, Jay's troubles continue to burden him. He and Mikayla are fighting habitually, his home life is still unbearable, and his time at school is hardly any better, made worse by a bully named Calvin. Their mutual dislike of one another leads to a lot of hostility, routinely leading to Jay being sent to his school's principal. One confrontation in particular goes much too far, resulting in Jay's expulsion from school. With everything seemingly piling up, Jay is very close to his breaking point, and late one night he is blindsided by the unthinkable, pushing him much too far and effectively planting in his mind a cruel and horrific plan for revenge.

At twenty-two, Louella has become a ghost of her former self, retreating into a world of silence and secrets after deferring her college dreams. She's mastered the art of blending into the background, hiding the pain she carries like a bruise that never fades.

"No one knows what was done to me this summer. And no one will ever find out. They wouldn't understand... My own parents don't even understand... No one knows and no one saw.... or so I thought." Iyana Bright is a 17 year old, high school girl who goes through a horrifically violent experience during her summer break, but a spiked drink leaves her memory in a haze. Through the new school year as a senior, she deals with bouts of PTSD, anxiety, and depression as the memories of her ordeal haunt her every waking moment. Until the new girl, Jules; who also happens to be her next door neighbor, enters her life. Jules, also a 17 year old senior, has demons of her own to fight. With no mother in the picture, a suspiciously angsty college brother, and an abusive father who can't keep his anger in check, she carries a little secret of her own that could either make or break Iyana's traumatic grief. What will these two find waiting at the end of their journey; one happy ending... or an ending for one?
