After surviving the fires of hell and a day she wishes she could erase, Josie is left clawing her way through the ashes of trauma, loss, and the relentless demand to keep moving—because the world doesn’t stop for anyone. Toby’s desperate to shatter the chains of their past, but it takes two souls to rebuild what’s been burned.
Their journey back to okay is anything but smooth. Every scar, every silence, every choice threatens to tear them apart—or stitch them closer together. When a transatlantic escape turns into a reckoning, Josie and Toby must confront old ghosts, rewrite their story, and seal their bond in the most unholy of ways… with blood from the enemies who tried to destroy them.
Love. Vengeance. Redemption.
For better or worse—’til death do they part.
