That night Kayden died because of me. Half of me died with him. The other half was left to bleed, suffering Hayden's and his friends' constant bullying.

Her's is a destiny that cannot be changed; she's accepted that now. But there is one path she hasn't tried before, one choice she's never made, one man she's never said yes to... Could he be the key to changing her fate? Or will burying her heartache in another just make everything worse? Surrounded by the same souls that have followed her for seven lifetimes, Ellie decides to forfeit her fight with destiny before it even begins.

Mysteries will finally be solved and questions will finally be answered. And, with Ellie's eighteenth birthday rapidly approaching, she somehow needs to find the strength to fight for her life.

But she should have known that fate wouldn't allow it to be that easy. The same souls that have surrounded her in the past still find her again and, despite her best efforts, she can't seem to free herself from them.

As we journey back and forth through both Ellie's past and present lives, she learns that she isn't the only one in her circle keeping dark secrets.

"JESSICA" I hear a loud voice. My door slammed open and my father stood in my door way. "please don't hurt me" I whimper. He grabs me by my wrist and slaps my face. I could smell the alcohol on his breath. "your such a disgusting human being" he pinned me against the wall "just like your mother" he punched me then dropped me onto the floor. My limp body crawled into my bathroom standing. I looked at myself bruises everywhere, blood on my clothes, and my eyes were puffy from crying. My life was complete hatred of everything and still is.

He enveloped me in his arms, his touch warm, as it always had been. He kissed the side of my throat, the spot where my pulse throbbed in a steady rhythm that became quicker when he kissed it, and his kiss was the same as it always had been.
