Liam were in love once. She owes him. After the car crash that changed everything years ago
bright ambitious Jude went to medical school back on the path she had planned before meeting
moody artistic Liam. Meanwhile he never fully recovered from the dark stain the accident left
on his record. Now he's gone. When the police show up at the station instead of Liam Jude
realizes that she knows nothing about the man he's become. Now she's tangled up in his life

went wrong-even if she destroys her own life in the process.
