THEN

Both bear the deep scars of despair, and for that, they were unknowingly drawn to each other.

After surviving a freak accident, Layla struggles to keep up with life and move past the grief. But the sleepless nights, curdling guilt, and people who aren't as they seem break her ideals until her world is unrecognizable. When she meets Jaxon, someone whose demons call to hers, it's easy for her yearning to morph from leave to stay. But the monsters lurk everywhere in her world, and the worst ones are in her head.

NOW

She will never see him again.

After seizing a chance to escape from her past, Layla knows she's not going to make the same mistake she did years ago. She's determined to move on from what happened, stay hidden from those in her past, and find a semblance of normalcy. But like all things, that's easier said than done. And when the last person she expects collides into her life, it becomes near impossible.

.

She has a past that chases her and is too haunted to do anything but run. He has a loyalty that can break him and cannot do anything but follow. And their world is a nightmare that does not let go.
