"Some memories never tend to leave us...."
One nightmare was all it took for Hazel to remember the mistake she and her family buried two years ago.
Since then, she has been distancing herself from everyone, scared that they'll find out everything. Scared that she'll have to go through the pain again. Scared that she'll regret having survived an accident that could've taken her life. The whole time hating herself for it.
She tried paying for her mistakes but that wasn't enough for her. While dealing with all of this, all she looks forward to is completing high school without getting into any trouble. But for Hazel, the history repeats itself again but this time- 'The pain demanded to be felt, more than it usually did.'
Her friends were all busy dealing with their lives, of course they were, high school does this to everyone. Deep down they all knew that something was wrong with Hazel but whenever they tried to ask her about it, she would get angry. Realising that she would never come clean about it, her friends neglected the issue.
Then Archer West, Hazel's all-time crush, decided to walk into her life, refusing to leave.
Will they ever find out what Hazel was hiding?
Can Archer ever get to know the real Hazel?
Secrets always come out. Hazel's will, too, but the question is, will Archer and her friends accept her flaws and mistakes, and forgive her? Will they love her as they did before it happened?
