Since the day her mother took her own life, Ruby has forgotten what it feels like to be seventeen. Between taking care of her toddler brother and alcoholic father, she has no time for fun.
She also cannot shake the growing resentment she feels towards her mother's decision, which has left her unable to grieve without regret.
Enter blue-eyed musician Byron Black, who challenges everything Ruby believes in.
Byron refuses to let anyone control his life—or his death.
When he left the city behind, he was in search of a place where nobody knew his secret. What he didn't expect was to meet a beautiful redhead whose views conflict so completely with his own.
But as their romance deepens, Byron decides he needs to face the dark side of his life alone, even though the idea of losing Ruby tears him apart.
Will they be able to see each other through the darkness?
Or should they save their hearts and just let go?
