On the outside, Layla James seems like your average 16 year old; but nobody knows the real reason behind her long sleeves is to cover up her self-inflicted scars. At home she has to endure her alcoholic mother who abuses her daily, as well as her stepfather, who has been continuously raping her for years. Things change when Layla meets Cameron. She finds that the two of them are alike in more ways than she originally thought. Will Layla accept the help and comfort of her best friend Marcus, who has been by her side since the beginning? Or will she become enthralled with Cameron and the fast life he lives?
