When aid workers Will, Melanie, and Jon find themselves tangled in an incident with devastating consequences, throwing them into a world of chaos and despair. Can their loved ones help them find their way back to life?
Melanie
All I want to do is numb the guilt and pain. And the best way I know to do this is to go out and find a hot guy to distract me for a few hours. I don’t see a problem with that.
Well, someone tell this to my housemate – and best friend – Owen, who just won’t stop nagging me about getting help “to heal.” Why won’t he let me deal with this my way?
Owen
I get it, Melanie is hurting. But drowning herself in meaningless flings isn’t the way to heal. She thinks I’m just being overprotective, but how can I stand by and watch her self-destruct? She’s my best friend, my housemate, and the one person who’s always been there for me. I won’t let her push me away, not when she needs someone to catch her before she falls too far.
The problem? The more I try to help, the more I realize my feelings for her aren’t as simple as friendship anymore. And if I cross that line, there’s no going back.
