Five years ago, star athlete Bran Sykes had everything: great grades, great friends, and one foot out the door of his abusive home. Now, Bran is seen as a waste of potential. Leaving would have meant abandoning his younger brother, Harry, to the same neglect Bran had wanted to flee. As inseparable siblings, the two plan their futures together. But when Harry turns eighteen and gets a scholarship across the country, Bran is suddenly devastated and directionless. Without his role supporting Harry, what's left?
Forcing a smile, insisting he's fine, Bran is at odds with his deep-seated secrets while losing all he's known. However, in a whirlwind summer, he connects with Maya: an aspiring artist with her own mysterious past. With her, Bran acts helpful and happy like people want him to be. But hiding behind his optimistic façade may be what lets his inner battles win. In a journey of self-acceptance and overcoming grief, Bran explores the complications in learning how to love and how to be loved in turn
