A love story like you've never read before.
A tale of love, loss, and ultimate redemption.
A journey laced with warring mental health, compulsive addictive tendencies, and desperate attempts for understanding and peace. Eventual self-discovery.
Sat in an Edinburgh train station, Lucas recalls meeting Megan, a girl who shines a new light into his dark life, and once again life feels as though it's worth living, but lights are never without their shadows.
Transported back through the years, Lucas intimately retells the spiral of falling in love, the ups and downs, their meetings and exclusions, and his path through the thick and thin. Both Megan and Lucas try desperately to escape their inner demons, finding sanctuary in one another, but never entirely.
Everyone must face themselves eventually. They meet and break. Push and pull. Fix and fall apart.
Through suffering, torment, escape, and ecstasy, can they learn the lesson that will ultimately set them free?
