When Corliss Honeywell met Allie Miller, she was sixteen to his twenty and the housekeeper's daughter, but none of that mattered. They fell hard, and their romance was epic. But something happened, something that tore their unshakeable relationship irreparably apart. Now, five years later, Allie is in trouble, and Corliss will do whatever it takes to keep her safe, even if it means being near the one person who causes him the most pain. Allie doesn't care about the danger; she simply wants Corliss to go away so she can try to once again forget their past. But their past refuses to remain silent, and so does the person who wants Allie dead. Now it's up to Corliss to try and salvage what's left between them, but the clock is ticking because danger is around every corner.
