Four years can fly by in the blink of an eye. But for Tessa Ivanov and her loving family, four years is an eternity. 

After surviving for years in a hell she never thought she'd escape, Tessa can finally call her once lost forever house a home again. 

But things aren't that easy. Tessa has secrets. Ones that could tear her and her family apart for good. 

As Tessa finally begins to adjust to her new life again, old memories show up to haunt her once more, and she's left with no choice but to let her family in on the dark past she'd tried so hard to forget. 

Tessa has to decide whether or not the risk is worth taking, and if she can truly keep herself from the dark for good.

But Tessa's not alone anymore. She's finally back in the grasp of the family that never meant to let her go in the first place.

And if one thing is for sure, they won't be letting her go again.

111 parts Complete Mature
Victoria 'Ria' Winters is the youngest out of all her quadruplet sisters; the one with the dark humor and haunting past. That's why she worked so hard for scholarships abroad to get as far away as possible. All her sisters had their own challenges, but nothing compared to Ria's past. When a traumatic event when she was 11 repeated itself when she was a freshman in college, it nearly destroyed her like the 1st time. She's learned from an early age to trust no one. Especially not men. After an assault by Vlad Wolves, the younger brother of the star hockey captain Nikolai Wolves, Ria was dragged through a brutal court case that nearly ended her. Vlad, a master manipulator and narcissist, turned the tables, leaving Ria to bear the blame and forcing her to transfer schools to escape the shame. Now, three years later, Ria has rebuild her life at one of the best universities in the world, focused solely on her studies and her future. But when Nik-who's always despised her for 'trying to ruin his family image for attention and money'-needs help to save his beloved place on the hockey team, he's forced to turn to the one person he hates most: Victoria. Nikolai had his own reasons to hate Ria. But when his powerful father, who has always had doubts about Vlad's innocence, insists that Ria tutors Nik in exchange for her fully funded graduate scholarship abroad, they're both trapped. Obviously, Ria hated that whole family for what happened freshman year in her former college. Especially Nikolai Wolves who testified against her, as if the moron had even been there when his younger brother assaulted her. Forced to work together Victoria and Nikolai's mutual hatred ignites into a battle of wills. There sessions are a minefield of cutting remarks, icy glares, and unresolved anger. But beneath the venom, there's undeniable tension-attraction. Beneath the anger and hurt, they begin to uncover the truth about each other-and about Vlad.

To the family, it seemed like an abduction, a shocking betrayal that cast her mother as a traitor in their eyes. The whispers of an illicit affair hung heavy in the air. Little did they know, Tamsyn's mother's disappearance was a desperate act of protection, a cloak-and-dagger maneuver to shield her loved ones from a menacing world. What they'll soon discover is that Tamsyn's mother left with a secret that would rock their foundation - she was carrying twins when she vanished. Enter Blake, the enigmatic figure masquerading as her mother's "boyfriend" to the outside world, but in reality, the cunning mastermind behind The Guild, the globe's most ruthless assassination syndicate.
