Six years after he vanished, Livie Saunders’ lost love Cotton O’Dell reappears, tearing open old wounds. Livie wants answers. Cotton, newly sober, wants forgiveness. Then Livie learns the truth and her world shatters. In one reckless moment, Cotton destroyed their future and devastated another man’s family. Now consequences hang over his head like an anvil.
