On the outside, the McCauleys look like the perfect family, but on the inside Hadley knows otherwise. She has to be perfect at everything--being a student, athlete, and daughter--in order to protect her sister Lila from her father. However, when she starts dating Charlie Simmons in secret, it leads to an explosive accident at home. At the hospital, Hadley then tries to take her own life, and no one but she knows why--the real reason the accident happened.
