Athena Young's last relationship left her broken, but she's determined to finally leave the darkness Andrew left her in and go out in the world. She's about to have her first job interview in a year when a detective approaches her to inform her that Andrew has been murdered. And she's a person of interest in the investigation. Despite her efforts to put her past behind her, she finds herself still haunted by her abuser, even in the light of his death. And the attraction she feels for the handsome detective John Abernathy only confuses her further. He's also attracted to her, but he carries himself a heavy past. And secrets. They both try to resist their feelings but when Athena is ruled out as a suspect in Andrew's murder case, they dive headfirst into a passionate relationship. A passion that will consume them. Burn them. And change them forever. For better or worse. The past has a hold on everything and on everyone. And it always finds a way to reach you, no matter how far you try to run from it.
