It happened eleven years ago, during Labor Day weekend. The nanny was home sick, the parents had just rather publicly filed for divorce, and the older brother took his little sister to the championship game of the annual Volleyball Tournament. At 6:15, the six-year-old ran down to the water to collect seashells. At 6:47 pm, there was no sign of her. Three separate ransom demands came and three times her family paid, but they never found her. Not her and not her body. What they don't know is that Emma was also on the beach that day.

Now, three weeks before the summer season reopens, when Emma is caught between welcoming and dreading the change of pace, Ivy Anderson-Wright is found-alive. Ivy claims she doesn't remember her abduction, that she doesn't want to dwell in the past now that she's finally home, but Emma knows she's lying. Whoever abducted her is still out there, and they're willing to do whatever it takes to make sure she doesn't talk. And if Emma can't unearth Ivy's secrets and figure out what really happened that day, this time they both might end up dead. ------- Please feel free to leave any comments.

"Love isn't a game. You can't just waltz back into someone's life after breaking their heart and expect them to love you back. You can't play with someone's feelings, say three cheesy lines and expect them to forgive you for years worth of pain. Saying that you love them isn't enough." "Then what's enough? What do I have to do to get you back? I need you, Nazia. I really do." ~ Years ago, Nazia had her heart broken by the man she loved most. She switched her life around from that moment onwards. Her cherry chapstick became a vivd red, her sweet personality hidden by sarcasm and she switched out her cheerful closet for a more goth theme. On top of all that, she met Kabir. Comparing Kabir to Abeer was like comparing sweets to poison. Kabir was amazing with his sweet jokes, cheesy pick up lines and lazy personality. Her fiancé has made her fall heads over heels for him, helping her out of the sadness and aloofness that she once had. But now, her happiness is slowly breaking down as Abeer comes back to her life. He's determined to call Nazia his again - and he'll stop at no lengths to do it. In the war of hearts, lust and love, who will win?
