Caught in a loop of creating new scars to deal with old wounds, everything changes when Skylar meets Alexis. It’s the perfect girl-saves-girl story, except it isn’t.

As Skylar searches for ways to move on and move out of her darkness, she discovers that learning to love others may be easy, but holding on to a love that can save you is not.
