Trace Archer has dreamed his whole life for a home. Never did he know that he would find one in her... and when he does realize, he's already broken her heart. 

Scarlett Hill is an aspiring singer with a free spirit, working towards a life she'd dreamed of since she was a little girl, until one day when a world full of lies and deceit shatters her own. 

Trace is a force unstoppable, determined to have her. Without her, he'd lose a chance at life filled with light and love. And if he falls, he'd get stuck in that black hole forever. He didn't have another way. But neither did she. He will consume her, protect her, and she will fight him. 

Intertwined in the lies and secrets that she couldn't believe were real, with danger lurking in shadows and a heartless man who'd betrayed her trust once hell-bent to make her his, Allison will do everything in her power to break free. 

It is only a matter of time until Trace is helpless and gives up his dream before Allison gives him refuge, and together, they both finally surrender to the promise that was made to honor...

how far would you go . . . for someone you love? ♔ Levi steps forward, placing himself between me and Jack. Like he's protecting me from him. But I don't need protecting, certainly not from Jack. "Who do you think you are, dude?" Levi spits, getting in Jack's face. "Look, Scarlett was just helping me out with a proj-" "I'm not your dude," Jack bites, and I want to tear my hair out of my head. This is going downhill very fast. Jack turns to me. "Scar, we need to talk," he says lowly. Then loud enough for Levi to hear, "So can you please get this kid to leave." "Hey, you don't get to come in here and start ordering her around," Levi says harshly. "You don't control her." "And you think that you do?" Jack spits. ♔ When Scarlett moved off to college, she hoped to start anew and find her way in this world alone. Two problems. One: her older brother goes to the same college, and it seems like he's everywhere, keeping her from doing everything she hoped to do as a college freshman. Two: her brother's devastatingly handsome best friend also seems hell-bent on ruining her college experience . . . but in a different way. Their paths keep crossing, and Scarlett is reminded of the powerful attraction that they've both ignored for far too long. Not to mention, a new face begins to occupy everyday Scarlett's thoughts. When Scarlett is paired with an allusive, darkly handsome stranger for a film project, her world begins to open in ways she never thought possible. But as his mystery unravels into dark secrets, she wonders if she's falling a bit too hard. Before long, Scarlett is forced to realize that balancing the hearts of two boys at once just might result in the breaking of her own.
