Jack Cross was off-limits. My brother's best friend it was a kiss him and he'll die situation. But he was always so beautifully broken, all I wanted was to save him. Heal him. Make him whole. And I knew I could... if I could just get close enough... I could make it work. Until the night he disappeared. I mourned that boy like it was the end of my world. Until I head across the country to college for a fresh start and he's there... waiting... But he no longer looks at me like I'm the sun rising on his dark reality. Lyra Lennox was the girl who tempted me too far and cost me everything. It's been four years since I walked away from ruin. Four years for me to forget she ever existed. Until she's there sitting in my boss' office, all fresh and delectable with her latte skin and bronzed curls. I hate her. I hate her brother even more. So I should stay away, keep my distance. I'd be foolish to risk all I've earned on the brief high of crushing a Lennox. Lyra and I. There's a chance we might not be able to help ourselves, but we could save each other.
