When Leila hit the restart button on her life, she never expected things to get worse than they already were.
Once a victim of sadistic torture and torment, she had only one joy in the world. Her daughter, Bella.
Then one morning, all that changed.
Bella gets kidnapped, and Leila finds out from an ominous phone call that she has a week to identify and find the kidnapper, or her little girl dies.
She enlists the help of her best friends, Scott Harper and Darcy Grant, but Leila begins to understand that her closest allies seem to be harbouring dark pasts of their own. Pasts that connect them to whatever happened to Bella.
Leila soon realises that she's going to have to face the same fears she ran away from two years ago. Her past can never be changed, but she alone holds the power to alter the future, and she is going to have to fight her demons if she ever wants to see Bella again.
She needs to play the kidnapper's sick game and figure out who they are before it's too late.

Now, at eighteen, Jade is counting down the days until her exams are over, excited to spend a stress-free summer with her boyfriend, her two best friends, and her forever family. Unfortunately, things don't always go to plan -- not in a town like Greencliff.

And when she catches the eye of Lucas Coleman, the eldest of the brothers, it's only a matter of time before she falls. Only one question remains: Which way will she land?
