Description
In the wake of a devastating tragedy, sixteen-year-old Willow grapples with unimaginable grief and guilt after a car accident claims her parents' lives, leaving her to navigate a world that now views her with suspicion and pity. Isolated and emotionally scarred, she retreats into a dangerous silence, her pain manifesting in secret self-harm. However, a chance encounter with a compassionate classmate begins to unravel the walls she's built, igniting a fragile connection that challenges her carefully constructed defenses. This poignant novel explores the raw complexities of loss, the struggle for healing, and the transformative power of human connection when one is at their lowest point.
