Alek could kill me with a kiss. Finn's touch could end my life. My connection to the two men threatens us all. I once died for ten minutes, and I survived. My best friend died in the car accident and memories of that night haunt me. After months in recovery, I'm determined to escape from the shadows surrounding my life. I've found a job in the local hospital, a new place to live, and I'm ready to move on with my life. The new house has a strange atmosphere. My tiny bedroom decorated with nursery rhyme figures is cold, and I'm uneasy about the strange visitors I trip over on the stairs. I've an immediate and intense attraction to my housemate Alek, which also bothers me. He's attractive but arrogant and precisely the type of guy I avoid. So why can't I keep away from him? Work brings more challenges. I struggle to settle into my new role following my time isolated from the world, and the dizzy spells interfere with my job. A new nurse working in ICU is one of the few who talk to me. I'd love to spend more time with enigmatic and friendly Finn, but the guy has a chilling effect on me I want to avoid. I'm about to discover that there's a reason Alek and Finn have entered my life and they have something heart-stopping to tell me. The slow recovery and fogged nightmares aren't the only changes I need to deal with, and these two men are bad for my health. I'm Rose Walker. I died for ten minutes, and I'm not the girl I was.
