Abandoned as a child, Juliet "Jules" Hanover has always felt out of place. She's always wondered who she is and what happened the night her mother left her, but she's too afraid to face her past and consider the possibility that she might just not have been wanted.
After a childhood rife with abuse and uncertainty, Jules sets out to help others. Now a cop, with a year under her belt, the temptation to look into her past is stronger than ever.
When her ex shows up and the club erupts into chaos, forcing two officers running surveillance to reveal themselves, Jules thinks she's ruined. But when the tall, handsome bartender saves her life and takes a special interest in her, a door opens.
Suddenly, Jules is thrown into a world where no one is exactly who they appear to be and the slightest misstep could mean forfeiting her life. To stay under the radar she'll have to stick close to the man who saved her, but the longer she's in this world, the harder it gets to remember the truth from the lies. Before the mission is over, she may have to answer questions she's not ready to face. If she can survive long enough.
