Murder or Marriage

This is a story of love and loss of three childhood friends—Lauren, Maddison, and Jennifer—who had their whole lives planned out. Their future was bright. All three of them had been accepted to Spellman University; this would be the beginning of the rest of their lives. The girls had rented a beach house for the summer and had plans of lying out in the sun and pool parties and lots of shopping, until tragedy strikes, and Maddison learns that her brother is barely clinging to life, and the outcome does not look good. The girls pack up and return to their hometown to find out that her brother was murdered. Unable to console one another, this experience left them scarred for life. Their tight-knit bond was unraveling. All they ever knew was each other. How would they navigate life without one another? Before long, they were all leading different lives. If they only knew what was to come, would they have tried harder to stay tied to one another, like the sheets they tied together to make tents when they had sleepovers? Truth is, no one could predict what was to happen next. They say, time heals all wounds; I think Lauren, Maddison, and Jennifer would have to disagree.
