Rowan lives by a strict set of rules: Study hard, keep her head down, and never-ever-let someone in.
She's a pro at building walls, but it only took one night of blurred lines and a reckless kiss with a supposed stranger to bring them crashing down. It was supposed to be a one-time lapse in judgment. A secret left behind in the dark.
But the stranger isn't staying in the past. She's sitting at Rowan's Sunday lunches. She's the ghost in every room. She is the only person who challenges Rowan to figure out what she actually wants. But in a family built on loyalty, wanting her might be the one fight Rowan is destined to lose.
