Violence became a normal part of his life. He witnessed-- lived in a world with an angry and controlling man, but he didn't know any better. He didn't realize that the bruises around his throat weren't signs of passionate love. He didn't understand that intimacy shouldn't hurt or that when he was thrown to the floor, grabbed and restrained it wasn't because he deserved it.

After years of conditioning-- years of brutal fists and harsh words, twenty year old model Foster Banks has finally had enough. He's willing to leave everything and everyone behind to escape from the person he loves. But can he really outrun the demons? Or will he continue to be brought to his knees-- haunted by the echoing demands of the man who was supposed to love him?

All he knows for sure is that, this time... things will be different
