Es gab eine Zeit, die dunkelste aller Zeiten, in der Eden dachte, die einzige Person, die sie retten könnte, sei Josh. Er war alles Gute auf der Welt – ein vertrauensvolles Herz, eine liebevolle Berührung, ein freundliches Lächeln. Aber er sollte nie ihr Retter sein. Eden musste sich alleine retten. Nachdem Eden mit dem College begonnen und sich ihrem Vergewaltiger gestellt hat, scheint es, als wären sie endlich zur richtigen Zeit am richtigen Ort, um eine funktionierende Beziehung aufzubauen.

Chris e Maia si incontrano una prima volta dopo un quasi incidente (il che non si può certo definire un buon inizio) e anche la seconda non è proprio un granché. Ma abitando per tutta l'estate uno accanto all'altra, quasi inevitabilmente finiscono per frequentarsi e, giorno dopo giorno, imparano a conoscersi, diventando via via più intimi. Eppure non riescono a dirsi davvero tutto. Le loro storie, infatti, sono di quelle difficili da raccontare. Chris è stanco di sentirsi sbagliato perché gli altri non riescono a incasellarlo.

Tutto ciò che Eden vorrebbe è mandare indietro le lancette dell'orologio per rivivere quel giorno. Perché, se potesse, farebbe tutto diversamente: ignorerebbe il modo in cui lui la guardava, non riderebbe alle sue battute. E sicuramente chiuderebbe a chiave la porta della camera da letto. Ma Eden non può tornare indietro nel tempo, non può impedire che il migliore amico di suo fratello abusi di lei, e così seppellisce la verità, insieme alla semplice ragazza del liceo che era. Finge di non aver bisogno degli amici, di non aver bisogno dell'amore, di non aver bisogno che venga fatta giustizia.

Après avoir été violée, Eden a enduré quatre ans de silence, de terreur et de rage. Aujourd'hui, elle essaie de reprendre pied. Il y a la fac, d'abord, avec son lot de défis et de nouveautés.

Josh avec qui, peut-être, une deuxième chance est possible... Survivre, puis réapprendre à vivre. Le chemin de guérison d'Eden à travers sa quête de justice, de liberté et d'amour, à nouveau brillamment interprêté par Violante Rhô, ainsi que par Benoît Berthon, qui donne voix à Josh.
