Ava thought leaving Jesse was her escape, but nothing—and no one—could be further from the truth when he resurfaces with that intoxicating intensity all over again. Torn between the magnetic pull of their undeniable chemistry and her desperate need to understand the wounded man beneath his commanding exterior, she finds herself dangerously close to the very thing she ran from. As Jesse draws her back into his world with seductive determination, Ava realizes that getting to the truth means surrendering to the connection she never truly escaped. This is a book about two people who can't seem to stay away from each other, no matter how much damage they might do.

Intense, sensual R&B and dark pop—think The Weeknd, SZA, and Jhené Aiko. Moody indie rock with magnetic pull. Sultry vocals, heavy bass, brooding atmosphere. Surrender and obsession. Passion that burns and confuses. Contemporary, intoxicating, dangerously close.
