Brandi left home years ago and never looked back. Leaving everyone and everything she knew behind was the only way to free herself from her dangerous ex-boyfriend and move on with her life.
When she arrived in Barrington, the plan was simple: stay under the radar and don’t get too attached. She didn’t want a bunch of teary goodbyes if she had to pick up and leave again. It wasn’t ideal, but it worked—until she met Emery.
Emery is the first person that makes Brandi consider putting roots down in Barrington, but his excitement for their future doesn’t outweigh her hesitation to reveal her complicated past. Love is messy and she’s more than a little wary of making vows she can’t keep.
After receiving an alarming message from her parents, she’s more convinced than ever that she needs to leave town and find a new place to start over—even if it means leaving the love of her life behind. But when the past she’s been running from catches up to her, Emery might be her only hope of making it out alive.
