Sometimes the worst things can happen to the best people. Edison West spent the first twenty-two years of her life enjoying the benefits of living in a small town. A simple wave or friendly smile should not have put her in the path of evil, yet that's exactly where she found herself. Gone is the girl who trusted, loved, and cared about everyone. In its place is a girl who has folded into herself, and locked herself away in her own private world filled with dark shadows and leering nightmares. Edison's road to healing is made easier by her small circle of friends and family. Though they help keep the darkness from consuming her, her past continues to try and haunt her at every turn. When fate decides she needs to start making some changes they come in the form of one sexy man in uniform and a slowly growing group of people she can call friends. Edison's journey is met with a few hitches and glitches, and a past that just won't stay in the past and now it threatens the very people she struggled to hold on to. Even when things look perfect, there's always the lingering shadows of hell waiting for her on the other side of happiness.
