And while Camille was desperately running away from her nightmarish past, Aiden was stuck in it, scouring every corner hoping to find her.
Ten years later, they unexpectedly meet in a courtroom as defense attorneys in the scandal of the century. It could very well be the most excruciating litigation Aiden and Camille will ever fight for. As the truth is exposed, Camille's past catches up to her. This time, however, she was not running away. Even if it meant digging up the past, opening wounds, and facing the brutal truth about her past.
Even if it means breaking Aiden into pieces all over again.
