When the most traumatic tragedy imaginable occurred, Kalli found herself alone--in every sense of the word. Nothing could have prepared her for the loss she endured and only one person could put her back together. Riot wanted nothing more than to comfort Kalli, to be the person she trusted, turned to, and leaned on, but after weeks of silence, he was starting to believe nothing would ever bring them back together. Except, perhaps, circumstance. When fate throws them together again, she resolved to keep him at arm's length, but he was even more determined to show her they belonged together. For Kalli, it was never a question of whether she loved Riot, but rather whether she was willing to risk everything even when she felt as though she deserved nothing. Contains mature themes.
