Camille is desperate to sever ties to the city she narrowly escaped, even if that means moving to the middle of nowhere. With a forged identity and a fresh start, she's determined to lead a quiet life. Which means keeping her distance from her new neighbor. The very furthest thing from her mind is indulging in her taste for dangerous, handsome men.
Dawson McGill is on the run and in need of a place to stay. A haven cut out of the Smoky Mountains in a small, North Carolina town seems as good a refuge as any to lay his demons to rest.
But Camille and Dawson have more in common than their first encounter suggests. When both of their pasts come storming back into their lives, they must acknowledge the repercussions of every lie they ever told. Or reap the deadly consequences.
