After an attempted suicide, Sophia meets Harper, an angel of a man who is also her psychiatrist in the mental health hospital where Sophia is sent. Sophia meets Jeremy in the hospital, a boyishly handsome man who is just as broken as she is. However, he is suspicious of Harper and his intentions toward Sophia.
