Gina Carter has spent the last year drowning in grief. After losing her father, she's left with a mother who barely sees her, a future she doesn't believe in, and wounds that refuse to heal. University is supposed to be a fresh start, but it's hard to move forward when the past won't let go. Then her mother marries Aiden Grey. Kind, patient, and carrying heartbreak of his own, Aiden is everything Gina expected to hate-and everything she never expected to need.
As two lonely people begin to understand each other, comfort turns into longing, and the lines between right and wrong begin to blur. Some feelings should never exist. Some temptations can destroy entire families. But when love grows in the worst possible place, walking away may be the hardest choice of all. A dark, emotional contemporary romance about grief, healing, obsession, and forbidden desire.
