And the overly helpful Joel North, who is exactly everything she’s told herself to stay away from.

What Autumn doesn’t expect to uncover are secrets that change everything she’s known about her family and the life she’s led. It doesn’t help that Joel seems to hold the answers to some of her darkest questions and there’s one he just won’t answer.
