A childhood agreement between two friends is lost in time after their fourteen-year separation...
She was the young, naive little girl, unable to defend herself from the cruelty of the outside world.
He was her smart-mouthed, protector, and best friend, who fell victim to the very same thing.
The past fourteen years have been anything but kind to them both. Denise Greene, unable to open her heart anymore to people who promise to keep her safe, has resorted to shutting out any form of romance from her life and sheltering her heart from those that only want the best for her.
When finally coerced by her best friend to come out of her shell, she comes face to face with the very same boy that helped change her life all those years ago.
But the boy is most definitely a man now and for Denver Hendricks that may not be the only thing that has changed...
Between the tensions that hang amidst the old friends and their reunion, which is nothing short of spectacular, could there ever be anything more for them, or did everything change for the worst fourteen years ago?...
