"Don't look at me as if you are dazed."
"I'm not dazed, I'm disgusted."
"Soon you'll learn to despise me; this is just the appetizer..."
Rachel Zinner is not just a brilliant, stubborn, and mysterious girl. Behind her smiles there are secrets that no one dares to uncover. Her popularity in high school exploded thanks to her beauty, which she doesn't actually believe she possesses. She can't see herself the way others do. Despite her life seeming perfect, she feels trapped in a loop of boredom and apathy. Every day, she hopes to feel something different, something that leaves a mark.
And that wish is granted.
One night, Rachel dreams of Giacomo Vann, the boy she would have given everything for, who disappeared six years ago without giving her any explanation.
Is it just a dream, or a warning of something more dangerous?
When fate brings them back together, Rachel feels her world tremble. He is still the same as before: handsome, charming, enigmatic, with a past as heavy as a boulder.
She knows she must avoid him because seeing him stirs up sensations and memories from her past that she has always tried to leave behind...
But her heart? It has never stopped beating for him.
Giacomo, too, is hiding something-a secret bigger than himself. Behind the impenetrable walls of his heart and his tormented soul there is a mystery that forced him to choose between Rachel and something dark he could not ignore.
He made her a promise: he would burn the world to protect her.
But now it seems that very world wants to keep them apart...
Amid lost and forbidden loves, unspeakable truths, old grudges, unfinished business, and uncontrollable attractions, Rachel and Giacomo will have to face a past they have never truly let go of...
