"Please don't ever do this to me again... I was so hurt thinking I'd never have you..."
When life keeps tossing questions at Ashley, the only person with answers seems to be the one man she swore she'd never figure out - Michael. But the more she listens, the more she realises... some answers aren't spoken. They're felt. And some calls - like the river's - can't be ignored.
"Now Ashley has to face the truth: answering the river's call might just change everything... but will she survive the current?"

Love Trust and Betrayal
