Driven

Eighteen-year-old Oliver's troubles don't end when he's released from prison. He has nowhere to go, and he can't even think about moving past his crimes while trying to survive homelessness. Helping an elderly woman after a fall guides Oliver into at least a temporary home. In exchange for odd jobs and some assistance, he's welcomed into a life with the old twin spinsters, and it seems too good to be true. The neighbor, Simon, certainly thinks it is. He doesn't trust Oliver or his motives. Oliver is used to that kind of judgment, but it isn't helping him overcome his guilt. Maybe Simon is right and Oliver doesn't deserve happiness—or any of the other feelings stirring in a heart Oliver thought he'd closed off for good. Oliver has two options: let the pain of his past swallow him and destroy all hope for the future, or move on to the new possibilities in front of him. Choosing to live won't be easy, and Oliver might not be able to do it alone.
