“Everyone is made up of colors. I just have a little more.”

Grayson has always been different. From the time he started truly understanding what emotions were, he knew that something about him was special. It wasn’t until he turned eighteen that he realized what he was.

An empath.

Being an empath hasn’t come without cost. While Grayson is always told it’s a gift, the overwhelming wave of emotions is starting to ruin his life. Between starting his first year of college, living by himself, and making new friends, he fears getting close to anyone. As he starts to fall in love with a man he meets on the internet and grows closer to his new friends, the worry strikes up again. Getting close means getting hurt. Getting close means having to feel.

And as he’s learned from past experiences, feelings always have a way of taking control.
