"I thought life was dark, but it turned out to be even darker." After years of suffering torment and abuse, Amira ends up in the home of Minerva Harden, a single mother of twin boys living in the countryside. The Hardens are not a perfect family, but it is the most comfortable place she has ever been. Over time, she slowly embraces her life again as she starts to feel affection for them. However, that comes with the strong fear that once they discover the truth about her, she may lose them or, worse, they may change the way they see her. To stay and dare to see if love is enough to keep them or leave and save herself from devastation, Amira has to decide which path to take, for it is only a matter of time before her secrets start to surface.
