Safiya Brice is just your average woman. She lives a simple life training dogs for various agencies, until one day everything changes. She's suddenly raising her siblings after their life took a horrible turn and their world was blown to pieces.
Cage James is a born ready firefighter, always looking to save a life even at the cost of his own. But being Safiya's best friend is a whole different story. For years he has stood by and watched her be happy with someone else but will things change while her life has spiralled out of control?
With darkness always looming around every corner will the family make it through? Will he be able to save her and those she loves or will he fail and risk everything? When tragedy keeps striking, will he be strong enough to hold the foundation they've built together? All Cage wants is happiness for him and Safiya. Together can they save their family from the darkness?
