"You are so damn perfect. Every inch of you. Every part of you is more beautiful than the last. I'm burning, Nioma. I'm burning from your light, and I never want it to stop."

Nioma Lee is an American living in Scotland. Or more precisely, hiding in Scotland from a past she can't seem to escape. Having left Wyoming four years ago to complete her education, she's a woman set in her ways. She has it all under control.

Stifling memories, panic attacks, insomnia...they are just everyday occurrences. Nothing she can't handle.

It is all contained until a chance encounter threatens to unravel a web of fragility. When Oren MacKay drops right into the middle of her life, she must decide whether the past is worth holding onto.

Seven years of deadly secrets are a lot of skeletons to unbury and she soon finds she cannot do it alone. With the support of her therapist, her best friends, and a chance to trust again Nioma has a choice to make.

But hope can be a dangerous thing, especially when death so readily waits in the shadows.
