Jennifer Lynn Barnes, the #1 New York Times bestselling author, delivers a unique star-crossed, enemies-to-lovers, tragic love story! Experience the tale through two perspectives in this lushly designed deluxe novel that you can read both backward and forward.
Hannah Rooney knows how to be invisible. At twenty, she keeps her head down and her eyes open, avoiding entanglement with her notorious criminal family. She's counting down the days in nursing school until her sister, Kaylie, turns eighteen so they can escape their old life and start anew.
Tobias Hawthorne II is the epitome of an entitled heir. As the only son of a wealthy man, no door is closed to him. However, beneath his sharp exterior lies a nest of secrets and a fiery anger ready to burn everything.
Their worlds collide one stormy night when tragedy strikes, leaving Kaylie and two others dead, and Toby barely alive with no memory of his past. The fisherman who rescues him enlists Hannah's help to save the man she believes is responsible for her sister’s death. Driven by hatred, Hannah is determined to keep Toby alive, despite his death wish. He is the last person she should develop feelings for, and she is the first thing he remembers.
Some things cannot happen—and some things cannot be stopped.
