After Brynn’s sister was senselessly murdered – and her body inexplicably branded with a strange medieval crest – Brynn’s world shattered. In that one moment, Brynn lost her sister, her best friend, and her better half. And things only got worse when the police discovered, all too late, that Caleb McAllister – Brynn’s boyfriend’s older brother – was the person responsible. That was eleven months ago.
Since then, Brynn has picked up the pieces of her broken life and moved on. She’s changed her hair, her name, and her school. And she even has a new boyfriend – one who’s honest, and loyal, and safe. And everything that James McAllister wasn’t.
But when James suddenly returns to Park Crest after an inexplicable eleven month absence and swears that his brother isn't to blame, Brynn must finally confront the truth about her sister and herself... And the boys who ruined both their lives.
