A boy hiding his own light.
Two troubled teens are thrown together, with broken hearts and hurting souls, struggling to find a way to escape the pain of their problematic pasts.
***
Paige, a senior in high school, meets Chris, a troubled boy who might entirely change her life and turn it all upside down in an effort to discovering his own identity and healing a heart broken by his past. Though largely unknown to each other, they'll have to place their trust in one another to discover themselves, and the meanings to their disturbing and mysterious pasts and futures.
The only thing they don't realize about each other yet is Chris and Paige were destined to cross paths, and just at the point they are in their lives right now as well. They both possess deep shades of black and white, dark and light, that they have yet to fully realize they themselves possess.

Indignant Heart
"Born again, are you all dreaming? Wake up! Nicodemus was right! There's no way you can be born again! We're all already here, we were born! Now, we're gonna die! It's as simple as that." My face was hot and my hands were shaking. We're all gonna die... I pushed the memory back and shook my head, eyes angry and staring down the pastor. "Jesus fed his disciples and all the people around him a whole bunch of crap and they ate it." "Naomi!" "He didn't know what he was talking about because fictional characters in a story never do. They say the lines their authors give them because it's their job to. They don't exist. He never existed. You all should realize that sooner or later instead of wasting your time here, it's screwing with your minds." A pin could have dropped from the top floor and we would all hear it. "Then why don't you just leave." The cold words plummeted against my chest as quickly as they came. That was the pin drop, the end to all the excitement, but not. My heart hammered against my rib cage as the voice echoed through my ears, playing over and over. His words, they were insulting, they hurt, but I didn't show it. I turned and faced him and his eyes remained indifferent towards me. I froze in my seat. They were once this bright hazel, but they seemed darker now, furious. "If you feel that way, then leave." He spat. His jaw clicked at the end of his sentence. "Take your opinions, take your anger, take your indignant heart, and leave this church." ~~~ It never occurred to Naomi that He could have been real, that maybe a life of emotional hardship was the plan for her all along. If it had occurred, she never accepted the thought. She never accepted anything, but Carter. What was life? What was love? What was pain? What was happiness? What is God? Read the story of a broken girl who finds the truth through love.Complete
