Counting Fireflies
Seventeen year old Evan Taylor is anything but quiet and mellow. In school he is known as "crazy Evan." But his life and everything he's ever known changes that one day in biology class. "It's just a stupid homework assignment," he tells himself. He quickly discovers that his mother is a pathological liar and his so-called dad isn't much better. "They're all going to pay for what they did."
Zach Carvelli, a shy, quiet, and mellow boy, the type of kid who doesn't speak unless spoken to, disappeared from Evan's life when they were ten. As kids, Zach had the power to calm "crazy Evan" down. "He never says goodbye," Evan broods over and over, carrying this grudge year after year.
Raised by a fanatical Christian Scientist mother and a brutalizing stepfather, Zach survives a devastating and life-altering illness and finds love and happiness in the arms of an unlikely boy, "crazy Evan." As he reappears, the grudge slowly melts away and he is forgiven.
