After six gruesome years in the city and four years at college, she takes up her mother's offer at an internship at their company's headquarters in New York City. At last it was a place where she could escape her demons and start fresh.
But a chance encounter at one of the city's hottest new bars leaves her frozen in her tracks. A person from her past has emerged, and she realizes quickly he is not the man he used to be. Arrogant, cold, and angry at the world, he has kept everybody at arm's length, and Alexa's arrival is no different.
Deep in her heart, she knows that in order to truly move on, she must right her wrong, but it turns out the path to redemption is much rockier than she expected. Along the way she finds herself right back to where she was, but the fall is much higher than it used to be.
