Scarlett

When Sam, the one man she never thought she’d never see again, lands in her lap with a serious case of amnesia and the message ‘find Olivia’ scrawled across his arm, she finds herself facing the past she tried so hard to run from. Even knowing its a bad idea she reluctantly agrees to help him recover his memories and find the mysterious ‘Olivia’ so that she can send him on his way with a clear conscience, sounds so simple, right? There’s just one problem. Sam’s the one who betrayed her, only he has no memory of those events at all. Suddenly everything isn’t so black and white and the more of Sam’s memories they recover the more she questions her own memories of those dark days. Pursued by Angels and Demons alike as they tried to piece back together Sam’s damaged mind, Scarlett finds the lines blurring. Unable to tell friend from foe, she has no idea who to trust with her life and Sam’s, but the closer they get to the answers the more she comes to realize that the one person she needs the most is the one who hurt her in the worst way.
