With a once alcoholic mother and a deadbeat father, Ally has learned to take care of herself almost her entire life growing up in small town Jacksonville, NC; she earned outstanding grades, received a music scholarship in her junior year of high school, and even made the audition cuts into the NYC Dance Company. She had everything. Who would have ever thought, that one surprise party would change her life forever? After that night, she built her walls high and thick and shut out everyone she knew and everything she had before that night, including dance, grades, and her music. Then she meets Harry, dark and twisted Harry; someone she'd never think to be capable of loving someone, let alone the type of person she would fall for. But against all odds that try to keep them apart they fall hopelessly in love, but little do they know that a deadly secret linking the two together could destroy everything they are, everything they ever had, and everything they ever will have.
