The demons of Roman’s past seem to echo through the halls of his empty mansion and out across his breathtaking Topanga Canyon view.

But as she gets to know the enigmatic man behind the reputation, it’s as if the jagged pieces of both of their pasts slowly begin to fit together . . . until something so unexpected happens that it changes the course of their relationship-and both their lives-forever.
