Paige Fleming knows she wants to be a writer. At school, she avoids both trouble and an obsessive ex-boyfriend. At home, she takes care of her down-and-out father. Life carries on until the unexpected return of her brother Trevor, an angry and sometimes violent teen forced from the house two years ago. Now he is looking for a second chance, and everyone except Paige seems to think he deserves it. Trevor moves in with Paige and her father, and it quickly becomes evident he has ulterior motives for returning home. Fearful of Trevor and all that he reminds her of, Paige starts behaving strangely, alienating her friends and finding herself alone to deal with unresolved problems from her past. Before she can begin to see the way forward, Paige must confront herself and the brother she hates.
