Livia has never felt like she fits in. As normal as it sounds, Livia is anything but ordinary. She can feel every emotion of every single person around her, and it’s maddening. In pursuit of some psychic quiet, she moves with her family from New York City to Whidbey Island in the lush and sleepy Pacific Northwest. But when a horseback riding accident in her new home gives her a broken leg that heals in a day, she finds that another unexplainable ability has manifested, and her life isn’t about to get any easier. Adam has no problem fitting in and making friends. In fact, he’s the top of the school, the boy everyone knows and loves. However, people only see what he allows them to. No one knows what Adam is truly capable of. After witnessing Livia’s accident, Adam sees something intriguing in her quick recovery, something that gives him hope that he’s not alone. Adam is the only one whose emotions Livia can’t read. Afraid of not knowing what goes on behind his dark eyes, Livia decides to keep him at a distance. Yet the more she tries to ignore him, the more alluring he becomes, and while their personal quests for identity will inevitably bring them closer together, it is the confirmation of what they really are that threatens to tear them apart. Resilient, told in alternating point of views, is a gripping paranormal love story of survival and romance, in which two teenagers face the consequences of being anything but normal.

Aaron's poetry is very engaging. It takes you somewhere deep into the mind and connects you straight to his heart. I highly recommend taking the time and indulge in his creative world. A good place to start is here... Aaron's will to survive and deal with the cards life has thrown at him is something I can not put into words other than to say that I would find it extremely difficult to do half of what he has achieved. A man that we can all learn from and one exceptional special human being. Listen to his words and let them resonate with your life. Everything becomes so much clearer and simple when viewed with this mans eyes. -Damien Reilly, Director and Founder of Blue Pie Productions USA
