Two childhood friends, their blossoming romance, and the tragic secret that stands in their way... Katia just saw the last person she’d ever expect. Brian, who she hasn’t seen since they were nine years old. Because he moved away without saying goodbye. Brian, who was her best friend in fourth grade and made her laugh and made forts with her in the woods. Who left her alone when she needed him most. Now he’s back. Her best friend, Adam, isn’t thrilled. Except Brian’s completely different than she remembers. He’s not the boy next door anymore. There’s a darkness inside him, and he won’t tell her what caused it. But Katia knows the Brian she remembers is still inside there somewhere. She’s seen a flicker of it in his eyes when he comes in close and tells her to stay away. She’s determined to find the real Brian. And to find out what happened.
