Synopsis

They say that there are two kinds of people— those who believe and those who don't.

But it's the third kind that you've got to look out for. The kind that once believed and eventually fell out of it. They're the ones whose lives have been tossed over by a hurricane, whose souls have been broken down and darkened because they were pushed far beyond their limits.

Meet Nick— or better yet, don't meet him. With a fortress built around him that has thorns sticking out from every turn, he's as pessimistic as one can get. And then there's Bree. Athletic, selfless, down to earth, and carries a heart so big you'd wonder how it fits into that petite frame of hers.

This is not a story about a bad boy who happens to have a heart of gold, or a nerdy girl who falls in love for the first time, or a villainous and manipulative cheerleader trying to get between them.

This is a story of a boy who's been forced to grow up far too quickly, a boy who escaped from a life that wasn't done trying to claim him back, a boy so stuck in his past he doesn't know how to look forward anymore.

This is a story of a girl who believes, a girl who sees the best in everyone, a girl who put every Tom, Dick and Harry before herself— a quality that Nick knows would be Bree's downfall.

It's about finding hope, regaining faith, taking a risk in letting oneself be happy, building bridges, daring to love, daring to let someone else love you back, discovering who and what family is, and above all, finding the courage to look forward and build a future.

Here's a Sneak Peek!
