Vincent Rhett has had more than his fair share of heartbreak and disappointment in life. Notorious reformed play boy that one girl saved and then without a word left him. He has never felt heartbreak until her, and surrounded by secrets, he's not sure how much more he can take, until Zahara comes along. She was meant for him, and he knew from the moment he saw her, that he would make her, his. Would be able to handle his inner monster or run away like the last one?

Zahara Blakely, a victim of the foster care system, has been subjected to abuse and neglect since she was a child, but despite all the baggage and the hard life she has endured she remained admittedly optimistic.

She could be happy for once, although it may not be all it seems to be.
