I knew what I was getting myself into by getting involved. I can't seem to let it go. I can't seem to let her go. Her life is now tied to mine. Her problems are mine, and my everything is hers. The last thing I can stand to do is see her get ruined once more. I will save Serenity. 

. . . 

Two years ago Serenity barely escaped her fathers deadly grasp. Now she's in Carson City living a new life under a new name. She lives in fear everyday but who can she trust to tell? Her superficial friends at work who don't notice the constant, distant look in her eyes? Her boss who doesn't give her the time of day? Or maybe the stranger that she keeps coming in contact with who seems like he sees right through her.
