Nobody could ever possibly understand what went on between them. It wasn't a normal thing that happened, but it was so much more.

Lyra and Stephen couldn't have had a more complicated story. One with so much heartbreak and despair. Betrayal and loneliness. Depression and self-doubt.

It was doomed from the beginning.

~

Lyra is a 17 year old from Mayo. 

Stephen is a 17 year old from Dublin.

They met online when they were 14 and despite the fact that they live in the same county, they've never met.

Best friends don't always have to have met in person.

But what happens when Lyra is forced to move to Dublin? And has the choice between going to Stephens school or to a different one?
