Payton has just arrived in a new country looking for a fresh start. Leaving a dark and

fearful life behind, she's ready to reclaim herself and leave years of abuse behind her.

What she didn't plan on is falling for Sam, the dark-haired rebel haunted by his own past

and afraid to love again. A casual encounter between the two of them turns into something

so much more, with the two battered and bruised hearts finally heading towards peace.

But just when Payton's new life starts to feel like home, her past starts to catch up to her.

Will she ever be able to outrun the looming darkness desperate to suck her back in? Or

must she face it head on in order to truly be happy?
