Colorless skies and iridescent lies have always greeted Kaylie Costello every morning for as long as she can remember. An uneasy silence falls over her mom every time they're in the same room. A gravestone and a handful of memories is all that remains of her dad. Her best friend is hiding a secret that could uproot lives. Bittersweet memories of a lost dream, like shards of shattered glass, keep unearthing themselves.
So when she gets stuck in an elevator with British transfer-student Hayden Williams, Kaylie has no idea of the impact he will have on her. When she realizes that he seems to understand her a lot better than anyone else does, she falls. Harder and deeper than she's ever done before.
And Hayden? When he catches himself wanting to be the reason behind her smile, he realizes he's fallen too.
But paradise doesn't last forever, and when the sun rises it brings along changes and hurricanes that may leave their relationship in pieces. From hospitals to concerts and tears to smiles, will Kaylie and Hayden make it through the storm hand in hand...
...Or will they lose each other forever?

He sighs out, voice raspy. ~~~~~~~ Isobel Loving and Hayden Arcane are two different people. But as you know, opposites attract.
