Synopsis
One night in college changed the course of Avery's entire life. Her rapist took everything from her - including the trust of her friends and long-term boyfriend, who were convinced she cheated. A year later, she still can't bear to tell the truth about what happened and risk her friendship with Morgan, the only friend she has left. Instead, Avery finds her way under a man or into a bottle just to convince herself that she has power over her feelings and her autonomy - that her body still belongs to her. That is, until she meets Pete, a man so kind and good that he awakens a part of Avery that makes her want to try something new. But somehow Avery's rapist has resurfaced in her life as the best man in Morgan's wedding. And as maid of honor, there's no way Avery can avoid him. His mere presence grates at Avery's already raw emotional state, and she begins to drive away the final few who care about her - including Pete. As the wedding nears, Avery must decide whether to finally let her walls down and tell her truth or risk spiraling toward a darkness she may never be able to recover from.
