Publisher's Synopsis
Paola Dante is a driven project manager. Long ago she made a decision that matters of the heart were inherently messy and should be kept at arm's distance. But her husband had surprised her; she had no resistance against Daniel. Now she sees herself as a survivor who has successfully moved on from the traumatic events and terrible truth surrounding her husband's sudden disappearance years before. An unlikely and ill-equipped mother, she stands alone between their adopted daughter Simone and a criminal kingpin. To save her daughter − and herself − once and for all, Paola will face her every fear, her every mistake, and the past she thought she'd finally processed and left behind.
