Lindley's life was simple before Wren came to town--she worked hard at school and saved up every paycheck from her waitressing job. The only thing she cared about was getting out of her one stoplight town and leaving her mother and her mother's violent boyfriend in her rearview mirror.  When her carefully crafted plan begins to fall apart, she'll have to learn the strength in being vulnerable and what family really means.
