Ellery doesn't want to live anymore.

She's unable to bear the pain of losing her younger sister to a car accident she blames herself for, or face the rest of her broken family. So, she's made a plan--bought the gun, arranged for her funeral, and picked the day. Everything has fallen into place. Then, on the day she intends to take her own life, she meets Colter, a boy who recognizes her desperation and becomes determined to stop her.

Ellery won't be swayed so easily, but as she struggles with her hopelessness it becomes clear Colter has good reasons for his vigilance--deep, personal reasons. And whether Ellery likes it or not, he can't let go.
