Journey Hawthorne has always been the peace maker within her childhood friend group, willing to do whatever she must to heal hurts and protect those she loves, even if it meant losing herself to do so. She never dreamed a choice made at sixteen could haunt her ten years later, especially when that decision was made to protect the man she’s loved since childhood. But when a phone call exposes her greatest secret, Journey soon learns that not all mistakes can be forgiven.
Tyler Mitchell grew up an orphan, taken in by his best friend’s family when he was only sixteen. Even though ten years have passed, and he’s been given everything he should ever want—a loving home, an adoring girlfriend, a successful career, and lifelong friendships—Tyler has always felt a foreigner in his own life. When the sudden death of his biological grandfather reveals long kept secrets, Tyler’s seemingly perfect life starts to unravel.
Torn between their loyalty for each other and the need to uncover who they were meant to be, Tyler and Journey soon discover the true meaning of love and family goes much deeper than they ever imagined.
