Valentine's death leaves her daughters Sabrina and Maria with unanswered questions - why had she kept them separated their whole lives?  If not for fate's intervention, they might not have ever found each other.  For Maria, a heavy burden is lifted with her mother's passing.  Then there's that nagging suspicion that maybe Valentine "found" her because she had been ill.  Why had she come looking for Maria when the one she had kept by her side was Sabrina?  There were far too many questions that the dead refused to answer.  That is until she came upon her mother's journals.  

They were the only possessions she had when she voluntarily entered the long-term care facility.  She had asked them to be put into storage.  Yet another secret she had kept from Maria, this long-term care facility where she lived and not the apartment they shared.  If she hadn't lied, maybe she wouldn't have been desperate to find a roommate.  And she never would have met Sabrina or Tony.  

Valentine's journal sends Sabrina back to the Davenport brothers as she desperately searches for the truth behind her daughter's death.  Maria finally has the answer to why Valentine abandoned her and then came back.  Except the truth is uglier than she could have imagined.  It startles and frightens her.  Then she comes face to face with her niece, Sabrina's daughter, and starts to understand that some secrets and lies are born out of a desperate need to protect the ones we love.

(Previously known as 'Forbidden love') My legs have a mind of their own and i find myself walking towards the bathroom. She left it unlocked. I turn the handle and open the door. The steam escaping. I walk further in and shut the door behind me. I don't think she can hear me. I strip from my clothes and push them to the side. I walk up to the bath tub that has a shower attached. I move the curtain out of the way and her back is facing me. She looks so beautiful right now it's too late to turn away. I step in and wrap my arms around her naked waist and rest my forhead on her shoulder blade. I hear her gasp and her body stills under my touch. Still not facing me, i speak.

Rose Waterstone, daughter of the lead commander, is sent to the facility at the ripe age of seventeen. She was sent for the same reason as everyone else - to prepare for the threat of war between sectors. She was more than willing to get away from her poor excuse of a father, ready to take on the real world - or at least she thought she was. Upon her arrival at the facility she can't help but catch the eye of the facility leader's son, Colton Grey. He was your typical broody, dark haired boy but he seemed to strike a nerve with Rose. He was intrigued by her but nothing but hatred seemed to fuel their actions towards each other. They couldn't stand each other, for what reason they did not know. Maybe it was because she was so stubborn? Or maybe it was because he thought that he had some kind of claim on her that excused the way he treated her? A new threat arises, rebels. Rebels who are hell bent on taking down the government and destroying everyone in relations to them, including Rose. They are both forced to work together, to help each other take down the rebels but how when they both despise each other with every fibre of their being? How when their resentment for each other runs so deeply? Colton hates Rose but won't let anyone lay a finger on her. Rose hates Colton but won't walk away.
