Matty Broewer is a boy with a troubled past and a heart full of guilt. Once the town bully of Hunter’s Crest, Matty is now a high school senior fighting for redemption in a place where his reputation seems set in stone. But behind his hardened exterior lies a story of regret, heartbreak, and a desperate longing to make things right.

When his younger brother Josh ran away years ago to escape a cycle of family turmoil, Matty lost his chance to be the big brother Josh needed. Now Josh is an actor in California, living a life Matty barely recognizes. Though time has passed since Josh left, the wounds of the past are still fresh, and Matty is left to carry the weight of his mistakes and the pain he’s buried deep within.

As graduation nears, Matty dreams of leaving Hunter’s Crest and starting fresh, but his plans are shattered when his mother steals his college savings. The stress revives old nightmares, and the sudden appearance of messages from the father Matty has never known only adds to his turmoil. With his past threatening to define his future, Matty must confront the shadows of his childhood, navigate fragile relationships, and find the courage to chart a new path forward.
