When a stranger named Emery asks what makes you happy, you realize you don't have an answer—so you do the unthinkable and jump into his car for a cross-country road trip. What starts as a wild escape becomes something far deeper as you and Emery share close quarters but remain emotionally worlds apart, separated by his carefully guarded walls and the secrets he refuses to share. A discovered journal pulls you into his hidden thoughts, and suddenly you're falling hard for a man you're determined to save, even as you realize the stakes are far higher than either of you anticipated. This is a story about two broken people finding each other on the open road and discovering that sometimes happiness means fighting for someone else's will to live.
