Synopsis

Eva Tramell narrates the early days of her marriage to Gideon, the man she calls a miracle. What it does give is the trouble: the vows they exchanged were meant to hold them closer, and they have done the opposite.

The marriage reopens old wounds and exposes pain and insecurities on both sides. Gideon works hard to help Eva fight her demons but will not face his own. Enemies who had stayed out of sight are drawn back into the open, and the darkness of his past presses in on a time that should be the brightest of their lives.

Eva feels him pulling away, and her worst fears begin to come true. The couple reach a hard decision: go back to the safe, familiar lives they had before they met, or fight for a future that now looks close to impossible.

This is a contemporary romance told in the first person, with an emotional and intense tone. It centres on a marriage under pressure rather than a courtship. Expect a story driven by fear of loss, old secrets and the strain of loving someone who guards his pain.
