Introduction

Seventeen-year-old Alex Peaks is a pessimistic realist, who is ready to get out of high school and away from her small town, away from the people she despises. That is until she's forced to work her first summer, forcing her away from her home, and foreseeing the worst time of her life approaching. Or is it?

Discoveries and Growth

After meeting a guy and becoming great friends, she still finds that she's looking for more, never realizing how much she needs people, how much she wants hope, and how much she never knew of love.

Self-Discovery

In this one summer, she learns more about herself than she ever thought there even was. Learning that who a person is makes that single person great. Before realizing a person can love you, you must first love yourself.
