Her mere plans to make it through culinary school unscathed are a thing of the past. Graduation is on the horizon, but Ande's life refuses to slow down and let her enjoy it. Daniel stole Ande's heart, then ripped it, unforgivingly, from her chest. He left her feeling rejected and alone, buried deep under a mountain of questions. Now he's ready to let Ande see the darkness of his past, but is it too late? Has she moved on? Blake is on the mend and his heart is back with a vengeance. Can people really change their ways? Is Blake the man for Ande? With a new found mantra, and bad-ass friends at her side, Ande forces her way through the questions the men in her life have left her with. When she finally has the answers, will she regret searching for the truth? Love and friendships will be tested. Lies will become truths. Who will make the final cut?

Blake was the quintessential asshole. Everything he did in his youth, was for his own selfish gain. He broke a few hearts, made a lot of enemies, and nearly lost his best friend. It wasn't until he was on the brink of losing the one person he thought he couldn't live without that he decided it was time to pull his head out of his ass, and try to be the man he always wanted to be. Two years have passed since he walked out of Ande's life. He loved her more than he ever did before, but his love wasn't the kind that makes you weak in the knees, or gives your heart a little kickstart. It was the kind of love that you feel for someone who never gave up on you, even after you've given up on yourself. Blake wants to make amends, and try to ease his way back into the lives of the people he once thought of as family. Everyone makes mistakes, but Blake soon finds out that some are more permanent than others. He just wants to be happy, but life has a way of giving you exactly what you want, in the most unconventional ways.
