Eden and Josh never had a fair shot at a healthy relationship. When they dated in high school, they each had their own problems, secrets that got in the way of the deep connection they felt toward one another. Unbeknownst to Josh, Eden was carrying the burden of a devastating sexual assualt, while Josh was coping with his own private struggle of having an alcoholic father. Months after Eden and two other girls publicly accuse their rapist, Eden is starting college while their case goes to trial. Now when she and Josh reconnect, it seems like it might finally be the right place at the right time for them to make it work. But is their love strong enough to withstand the crushing realities of a trial that will determine whether Eden gets the justice she deserves?

Eden and Josh reunite as Eden's rape case goes to trial, testing the strength of their relationship amidst the challenges of college life and Eden's pursuit of justice.
