Liberty Bell is in her last few months of high school. She's excited about graduation and is hoping to be a future author. This blossoms when she meets Bryson Johnson who also likes to write and encourages her to show her work off. They share stories and poems and through their writing become closer. Liberty starts seeing Bryson more often which grows the attraction between the two.
Of course, there is a downside; Bryson is about to be a college graduate, much older than her. The two don't see much of a problem, but how about her parents. But do her parents even deserve to have a say when they're keeping a huge secret from her?
