After years of playing the trophy, puppet, perfectionist,
I’ve forgotten who I am.
A heartbreaking loss makes me desperate to remember.
A journey to face my demons and atone for past mistakes,
Takes me to the deserts of Baja.
And like an oasis in the middle of the dry harshness of my guilt,
Stone Rivers walks back into my life.

Gone is the small boy I'd known.
Twenty years later, he's built like a god, handsome as sin, and charming beyond belief.
He wants us to pick up where we left off.
I know that is a very bad idea.
Not only is he my younger brother's best friend,
I'm a another man's wife

But his blistering kisses taste like destiny.
And our combustible chemistry shatters my resolve.
In his eyes, I see the woman I might have been
if I'd been allowed to fall in love.
I'm certain that in a different life, our love would have outshone the sun itself.
Until a well timed reality check reminds me that, in this life,
we're a scandal in the making,

He asks me for a second chance.
I tell him we've never even had one .
We say goodbye and I go back to my slightly unhappy, but very safe life.

When what happened in Mexico finds its way back to Rivers Wilde,
The consequences are catastrophic.
To protect the man I love from the one I'm pledged to,
I carry the weight of blame and shame for both of us.

But Stone won't let me have the final say on us.
He wants a change to make it right.
To make us right.
I love him, but we've got hurdles to overcome.
Is our love strong enough to carry the weight of
my past?
