To Save One: A Story of Best Friends, Shattered Hearts, Unspoken Pain, and the Project That Gave Them Purpose

Find solidarity in loss, friendship, and the fight to bring light into the darkest moments. “A brave and tender story that speaks to the heart of every teenager, and every parent who loves one.” When Evy loses her boyfriend to suicide, her life unravels in grief and unanswered questions. With the help of her best friend Henry and her classmate Chloe, who carries her own hidden struggle, Evy channels her pain into The Happy Face Project, a senior film that dares to talk openly about mental health. What begins as a school project becomes something bigger: a mission to break the silence, to offer hope, and to save at least one life before graduation. Along the way, Evy, Henry, and Chloe discover that healing is found in music, courage, and in standing together when it matters most. For anyone searching for connection and for every parent or educator who wants to better understand what today’s youth are facing. A story of heartbreak and resilience, it offers both a mirror for young adult readers and a conversation starter for families, schools, and communities. View Less
