All she wants is a normal life.

The past year has been hard for Jem Wilmont, catapulting her out of the quiet life she prefers. She's endured lies, truths, broken ribs, kidnapping, and the news media. She has also gained allies, friends, and a home. But the new life she's building is threatened now.

Thane Baron and his family are under attack. Someone from his past wants him dead and his family destroyed. Even as they struggle to learn who-and more importantly why-the attacks are escalating. To save Thane and his family, Jem uses every means available, including her most shocking and dangerous secret. A secret that exposes her past and puts her on a collision course with influential and powerful people...some of whom feel she is too dangerous to live.

While Jem navigates the minefield between acceptance and fear, Thane seeks to unravel the mystery behind his attacker. To have a future, Jem and Thane must survive their past and present.
