"I am used, Maddox..."
A clean slate. That's what the twenty-six-year-old Sadie Sinclair wanted for her new life in London. But as fate would have it, her bitter past that she desperately wants to bury would come knocking in her life once again, wreaking havoc on her newly found relationships. Will Sadie finally be able to brave the storms that come her way? Or will she once again make the mistake of letting the waves of life knock her down?
***
After eight years of being away, Sadie Sinclair decided to move back to London to start anew, hoping to bury every mistake that she made, along with the memories that haunted her for a very long time. There she meets once again, Maddox Wortham, a person whom she also met eight years ago, just a few months before she left London- a person she only met once but felt very close to him in an instant. As their paths cross once again, the two get tangled in situations that involve love, lust, secrets, melancholia, and the struggle to fight for their own sanity.
