Both are stuck - Bishop at community college in California--the last place he expected himself to be, and in an ongoing urequited love for Aspen Cornwell, the girl he used to be best friends with back when they were both playing hockey for Highland High. Now there are hundreds of miles separating them and Bishop wants and desperately needs to move on. Rose is stuck in a long-term on and off relationship with Roger Simms, a high school drop-out and local dealer, but most importantly, stuck in her life because of her health condition, as well as stuck with her single mother and the revelation about who her real father is. Both, Rose and Bishop have their own fair share of secrets, as well as sharing one together, but there's one in particular that Roger doesn't like and decides to remove for good. And when Roger wants something, he'll always get it. That's what Rose has learned well. Because Roger isn't the one to be messed with. How far is Roger willing to go to get rid of Bishop meddling in with his business? And how far is Rose willing to go to save her relationships from falling apart without hurting Bishop in the process? Is saving of the sheep still considered saving when you might very well be the wolf in sheep's clothing?
