Synopsis: “Graphic, gritty…with an explosive finale.”—Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of The Good Girl

Don’t get too close…

After a night of fun back in 1992, Abby is responsible for a car crash that kills her beloved brother. It’s a mistake she can never forgive, one that makes her hate herself enough to push everyone else away. Including Liam, the man she loves most. Even if he’s also the man who knows her darkest deeds.

Twenty years later—in a strange twist of fate—Liam and his family move into the neighborhood where Abby now lives with her own family, releasing a flood of memories that Abby has been trying to keep buried all these years. Abby and Liam, in a complicit agreement, pretend never to have met, yet cannot resist the pull of the past—nor the repercussions of the terrible secrets they’ve both been carrying…

“A tangled web of twists and turns…a gripping, edge-of-your-seat story.”—Kimberly Belle, bestselling author of The Marriage Lie
