Reese Anderson spent two and a half years being someone else, surviving a life that cost her everything ━ including the chance to say goodbye to her mother, Captain Zoe Anderson. When she finally returns home to Los Angeles, ghosts are louder than the city, and the people she left behind don't know how to fit her back into their lives. Caught between loyalty and love, secrets and scars, Reese finds herself drawn to the one person she was never supposed to want ━ her brother's best friend, Tim Bradford; a man who has always seen straight through the walls she built her whole life.
