What do you do when the one who stole your future is the only one who can give it back? Eighteen year old Sophie Gabcikova led a completely normal life in the quiet village of Panenske Brezany--until the day her beauty caught the eye of Deputy Reichsprotektor Reinhard Heydrich, and he had her kidnapped for the purpose of becoming his mistress.

She could only watch as after his death, her loved ones either abandoned her out of disgust for what had been done to her or fell victim to the bloody reprisals that swept the country in retaliation for Heydrich's death. Now she has come to the grave of the man who in his lifetime shattered her life beyond repair for one last conversation, a conversation she hopes will give her the strength to move on for good from that dark chapter in her life. In a macabre tale of pain, sorrow, and irreparable loss, she painstakingly recreates her days in captivity and beyond. And in every sentence resonates the only question she has ever wanted to ask him: "Why did you do that to me?" Some wounds can only be healed by deepening them.

But when her fiancé's secrets start to unravel, Carrie discovers he isn't the perfect, faithful man she thought he was. However, Nick has secrets as well. EXCERPT: "Nick," the man said with a flirty smile, taking my hand in his and pressing his lips to the back of my hand, lingering momentarily and then letting go. I felt my face heat up and suddenly wished I'd piled on the foundation so that no one would notice how extreme the blush creeping up my cheeks was. "Nice to meet you," I said quietly, hoping my voice didn't really sound as shaky to everyone else as it did to me. "Likewise," Nick said, keeping his eyes locked on mine. I started to wish I had worn a dress that wasn't so revealing. I loved this dress because it showed off my figure and my cleavage perfectly and made me feel like a model.
