Damien Clarke lost everything the night his world fell apart—and with it, the man he used to be. Now a shadow of himself, he hides behind a quiet life teaching history, desperate to outrun the ghosts of his past. But one reckless night—and one unforgettable girl—shatter the walls he’s built.
She’s off-limits. Too young. Too bright for the darkness clinging to him.
But some truths refuse to stay buried.
And some hearts don’t know how to stay untouched.
