      A ​nap, amikor Vale McKinley és barátja, Crawford átvették az érettségi bizonyítványukat, tragédiába torkollott, amikor egy szörnyű autóbaleset után a fiú kómába került. Az egész nyarat a fősuli tervezgetésével kellett volna tölteniük, majd pedig együtt indulhattak volna el a lehetőségekkel teli, ragyogó jövő felé. Ők ketten – hiszen ezidáig senki más nem számított. Ehelyett Vale minden napját Crawford kórházi ágya mellett tölti, reménykedve, hogy a fiú, akit gyerekkora óta szeret, felébred. Slate Allen, Vale bátyjának jó barátja, aki nem mellesleg igazi nőcsábász, szintén abban a kórházban tengeti a napjait, haldokló nagybátyjának nyújtva támogatást. Amikor találkozik a lánnyal, Vale nem tagadhatja az azonnal érzett perzselő, tiltott vonzalmat. Próbálja figyelmen kívül hagyni ezt, de nem tud sokáig ellenállni – reményei Crawford iránt azonban még nem hunytak ki, így Slate-tel szép lassan barátság alakul ki közöttük. Azonban Crawford nem ébred fel… Vale-nek rá kell jönnie, hogy muszáj megpróbálnia folytatni az életét a fiú nélkül, így egyedül vág bele a főiskola nyújtotta új kalandokba, melyek során útjai folyton összefutnak az észvesztően dögös Slate-ével. Barátságuk tagadhatatlanul átalakul, és szenvedélytől lázas kapcsolatuk nemsokára nem várt fordulatot vesz.
