One day.

That's all it took for Logan to lose her sister and with that, her mind.

Logan's world turns upside down when her only sister dies of lung cancer. She can't stop crying and she can't seem to get her life back on track. Logan desperately needs some control in her life. 

And she finds it. 

But the way she deals with her loss isn't healthy.

Logan stops eating and starts losing weight. It all started as a way to get some control back in her life, but it soon developed into an addiction. 

And that's when she meets Russell Fierce.

Sure, Logan has seen him at school, but they never talked. Why? Because Russell is trouble. At least, that's what everyone says. Everyone only comes to him when they want to buy drugs. That's because Russell occasionally sells drugs when he's broke.
Russell fights a lot as well. He always comes to school with a bruise on his face or a black eye. He scares people off, but no one actually knows him.

One day.

That's all it took for Logan to change her mind about the dangerous looking Russell Fierce.

Little did she know, Russell would end up to be the one to save Logan from herself.
