Lena Fisher has never had it easy. Raised in a family where love was weaponized and debt was her inheritance, she gets a high paying job with accomodations and didn't hesitate to take it, her first real escape. What she doesn't know is that the man waiting on the other side of that contract already knows her face. Adrian Stanton is cold, controlling and a man completely off limits. He is engaged to a woman from his world and answers to no one. But he can't explain why something in him goes dangerously quiet whenever Lena is in the room. And he can't stop. The scar on her jaw, something she has been carrying her whole life without knowing where it came from, holds a secret that will unravel everything she thought she understood about herself, about him, and about the afternoon two frightened children made a memory that only one of them was allowed to keep.
