Since Ruby Milton's mother committed suicide, she's forgotten what it's like to be seventeen. Saddled with taking care of her toddler brother and alcoholic father, Ruby has no time for fun. She also can't shake the growing resentment she feels for her mother's selfish decision, which left her unable to grieve without anger and regret. Then she meets blue-eyed musician Byron Black, who challenges everything she believes. Byron refuses to let anyone control his life-or his death. When he left the city behind, he was in search of somewhere where nobody knew his secret. What he didn't expect was to meet a beautiful redhead whose views conflict so completely with his own. But as their romance deepens, he begins to doubt his choices and decides to return to the city...for one last chance. When Byron disappears, Ruby will stop at nothing to track him down. Upon finding Byron, Ruby discovers his devastating secret, and a battle of wills begins. Byron doesn't want her to know this part of him. He has to deal with it by himself, even though the idea of losing her tears him apart. Will they be able to see each other through the darkness? Or should they save their hearts and just let go?
