You're innocent, but you just spent 5 years in prison. Would you be okay with never learning the truth? Xander Reinerman barely made it out of prison alive. Someone framed him and now he's out to show the world (especially his family) that he isn't the monster the media made him out to be. Doing that in a new town with no money, no friends, and a felony record will take every weapon in his arsenal and what's left of his shredded hope. After Golden’s philanthropist Gia Carter offers shelter to the handsome, quiet stranger in town, her life begins to unravel at breakneck speed, starting with her growing attraction to this broody man she knows nothing about. Someone's out to ruin her and they won't stop until she's headed back to her parents in a body bag. They need each other, but neither of them will ever trust easily again.
