When he first meets her as a young, gentle boy the heartache from losing his mother only a year before is still fresh and painful. Jade is different from anyone else he's ever met; tough, sassy, and even a bit cruel. But she's also the same as he is: she knows what it's like to lose a parent.

Their friendship begins and a bond like no other is formed. Time passes and Reed learns that not only are Jade's parents dead, they were murdered and she's made an oath to one day bring them justice. No matter the price.

As they grow older their love evolves but for Jade, old habits die hard and she can't stop hurting those she loves the most. Even in the midst of searching for her parents' killers, passion ignites and jealousy burns as Jade tests Reed's devotion for her. Will she push him too far?
