Shattered Streams
MEET AVERY, whose sole mission this summer is to blend in and lay low. Being the new girl in town is daunting enough. But when a silent burden from her childhood shapes her every interaction, the clean slate gives Avery a glimpse into what her life might have looked like had she never been controlled by her past.
Surrounded by unsuspecting friends and a potential romance, the scenic landscape of this lakeside town becomes both a source of solace and a testing ground for her deepest fears. The façade shatters when an impulsive decision to impress a crush reveals her paralyzing fear.
ENTER DALTON, a charming and charismatic companion who becomes Avery’s guiding light. Together, they confront the ghosts of their pasts, unveiling layers of vulnerability and resilience. Just as their connection deepens, Avery discovers that Dalton, too, harbors a secret. Doubt creeps in, and she must decide whether she has what it takes to overcome her fears, redefine her narrative, and dive into the unknown.
ONE LEAP IS ALL IT TAKES.
