Isla Henderson doesn't remember the last time that she saw Colten Barclay. The only thing she knows is that one day he was there, and then he wasn't. 

It's not like she had much time to dwell over it anyway -organising rallies, trying to keep her reckless best friend out of a cell, running an ever-growing blog, and having dinner on Fridays with his brother and brother-in-law takes up all of her time. 

Six years after, when Colten reappears as a successful lawyer, it is to rob what little flicker of light remains in Isla's life -the theatre school that her recently deceased father had funded. 

Childhood friends turned enemies, they will soon be sucked into a whirlwind of something else than physical attraction. Something dark, something forbidden, something that will make both of them do things they never wanted to do before. 

Cold on the outside, Colten has been sheltering someone else's secrets, slowly but surely dampening his good intentions. Secrets that not even his ex-best friend, Isla's brother, would be able to understand.

He's always had a crush on Isla, and he's the most handsome man that she has had the displeasure of knowing.

Everything she once cherished slipped away in the blink of an eye. After a mugging gone wrong, Hannah is left with brain damage. Years later, she's still trying to come to terms with the fact that her old life is one she'll never get back. Not her ability to write out a sentence or read a good book. Not the strength she once had to run a marathon or her ability to speak without stumbling over the words. The woman she was is gone forever and Hannah is forced to live with constant reminders surrounding her day to day life. Desperate for change, Hannah takes her former best friend from high school up on an offer to move in with her across the country and start a new life. It's the second scariest thing she's ever gone through, but Hannah knows the only chance of living her life is to give up trying to fix the old one that she'll never truly be able to mend. When she arrives, however, Hannah immediately realizes she's made a terrible mistake. This part of the city doesn't fit someone like her and she's ready to turn around before her bags are even out of the car. Until she meets Meggie's boss. David is southern, muscular and, according to Meggie, a grade A prick. But the brooding bar owner seems to have a soft spot for Hannah and is determined to show her that the choice she made to move here wasn't the wrong one and will do whatever it takes to get her to stay. Her second chance at life is becoming more than she imagined and as Hannah gets to know David, she begins to wonder if that second chance at life comes with a second chance at love.
