"I've known him for a long time- but I've never seen this side. Your love, Kian, it's dangerous." On a school assignment, over-scheduled and strung out Kian gets mixed up with R.J., the son of a prominent architect in Boston. When the Londoner with dark hair opens new doors in the familiar city, full with a history Kian never knew was there, he finds his heart skipping several beats a minute. And it's terrifying. But getting mixed up with that part of Boston is exactly what screws up what he's been planning his entire life for: a perfect life, a perfect university. There goes all his plans, his stability. When perfect, scholarly Kian blinks to one year later, he finds himself with guns in his pockets and new, dark choices that haunt him - a war that he's responsible for close to crushing the city. With fresh blood on his hands, he asks himself: what happened? Should he trust R.J.? Should he ever have trusted him? Should he ever have trusted himself to make his life mean something more? Or does he stay who he is? Does he run away from the new, from the exciting? Away from him?
