Description
Jordan Wills wants to die. It's a desire so strong that it seems impossible to ignore. It can't be pushed down or blocked out. The only thing that can distract him is fear. He lives to be afraid. The exhilaration of haunted houses, roller coasters, near death experiences, anything that makes one's heart race, but most of all heights. He wants to know what life is like at the top of the world, at the peak of everything. He's spent his whole life certain that nothing can save him from himself, but then. There's always a 'but then'. Madelyn Sheen is dying. Terminal illness is an endless battle that she fights valiantly each day. She wants to survive and live a long, normal life. She dreams of a picket fence house and a family. The only thing keeping her sane as her life slips out of her grasp is routine and order. Everything has a place and purpose. Everyday is scheduled down to the smallest detail. Nothing changes. It's like she put her life on hold until she gets better, but then. There's always a 'but then'. When two teenagers of opposite interests and goals become intertwined, they find that they balance each other out. Together they make a plan to take the other's advice and learn to live the right way before they lose the chance forever. They soon come to find that maybe life isn't as limited as they had previously believed.
