Publisher's Synopsis
Coming from a troubled home where no one loves her, Miya Jenkins turns to the only people who ever cared - the Walkers. Her best friends, Cate and Caden, always have her back and their parents treat her like a second daughter. She's smart, dedicated to her education, and focused on success. Miya learns to trust her instincts and never relinquish control, all while enjoying what life and men have to offer. Trust is a hard thing to come by for Miya, and she refuses to open up her heart. Like the willow tree under which she lost her innocence, she bends but doesn't break. Caden Walker - always there for her, always protective, always a comfort, but wanting more. Miya refuses to reveal her inner self, not even to him, and she's not willing to sacrifice their friendship. She wants a normal life, to feel anchored in the safety of someone's arms, but she wonders if anyone can ever tear down the high walls built around her heart. Is it possible the walls already began to crumble beneath that willow tree? Will all of her successful endeavors lead her to the one she thought most unattainable?
