It's been ten years since silent Genevieve has stepped foot in the town where all hell broke loose. Memories of abuse and pain were masked by one thing and one thing only, Ace: the boy who saved her life but died while doing so. He was long gone, resting in peace. Or maybe not. Now orphaned by a tragic accident, Genevieve finds herself back in the incredibly small town of Barren Valley, Nevada, but she discovers that dust and rumors aren't the only thing that remains. So remains a boy, the same one she knew to be dead. So how could he be standing in front of her, staring at her like he'd seen a ghost? Although Ace is sure enough alive, his past is shadowed by bad decisions, gang violence... and murder? Ace is keeping a secret, one so great that it might threaten Genevieve's new life and pull her right back into a world of suffering. Now, Ace's life is spiraling out of control and only Genevieve knows the story of what's plaguing Ace's mind. Can she stop him from ruining himself, or is she already too late? A past written in blood, a house haunted by strange shadows, unexplainable candles, and a lone boy standing amongst it all to save what he's already lost. Through twists and turns, somehow these two have found one another yet again. Some may call that fate. Others just call it really bad luck. © - 2016 (rating - PG13)

Doe is a girl who goes through a lot of heartache, warping her, and ultimately putting her heart in a layer of ice. Her parents die in a terrible accident which forces her to live with her grandparents, her boyfriend who she thought she was in love with cheats on her, and she moves into another state, leaving all of her friends behind. After all of this she comes to a decision: she refuses to care about people anymore. Caring hurts. Now she's showing her abrasive side of herself she never even knew she had. Seeing no more happiness in the world, on a rainy day when no one could see her cry, she decides to stand on the edge of a cliff to end her life. Except she doesn't. That's when she meets Caleb, a complete stranger who gets her not to kill herself. Concerned for her wellbeing, he takes an interest in her. No matter how hard Doe tries to push him away, he doesn't budge. Can he guide her back? Can he show her that life is worth living? Can he help Doe get over the nightmares of her parents' death? Escape an even more sinister dark side of her family's past that's still roaming and tormenting her? Or will Doe look death in the eye as it greets her on the rocky beach below?
