Amber never had much growing up. She was raised in the Glades by two working mothers who gave her everything they had. Although they didn't have much, it was still a fun and fulfilling life to Amber. Then Amber's mom Beth is brutally murdered in their apartment. Now Amber splits her time between her stepmother and her father's family as part of a split-custody agreement. But, just as Amber finally adjusts to her new life, her father comes back from the dead, and everything changes once again. Oliver grew up with money to waste and no consequences to face. He was wildly immature and could barely handle a teaspoon of responsibility. Then his yacht sank in the ocean and he washed up on the shores of Lian Yu. Oliver fought for his life for five years. But when he finally gets home, he finds more than one surprise. The most shocking one, his ten-year-old daughter. {Book 1}
