Summary
Life if the circus is not very interesting for the imprisoned cast members. Even though this is the case, Jax is not a sad lump about it--no, he's a moody prankster that entertains himself with mischief and other less than savory methods of distraction. One day, circus life changes for him and everyone else when the new girl shows up, and he finds that she is exceedingly more interesting than he would have guessed. He unexpectedly starts to indulge in her presence because it doesn't make him want to barf or break something, and she seems to be receptive enough to the formation of a friendship. None of the others thought him actually capable of being a decent, friendly person, accepting the innocent and ignorant Pomni. Fortunately for them, the little jester is actually much more aware and perceptive than they assume her to be, and she becomes the catalyst for changing the standard of living for all in the circus. Well, he figured out she's not as innocent and ignorant as he'd thought.

Summary
Will loved ordinary things, an uneventful existence was something he craved. Sadly, when Mike Wheeler walks into his life, Will’s easy going path snaps right in half. A passion he could never imagine overtaking his whole being.
It was too bad their friend groups hated each other and his sister had a huge crush on the musician. Off limits.
Fantastic.
