Shallow Hill is a place where souls endure agonizing, protracted suffering.
River McAllister fled from Shallow Hill, leaving behind her innocence—and a portion of her sanity. Now, she’s piecing together her life with her ideal partner, and everything seems idyllic.
Ryan Fitzgerald embodies every desirable trait in a man: handsome, affluent, aspiring lawyer, and utterly devoted to River. Yet, it’s not just his charm that captivates her; it’s his attentiveness, possessiveness… albeit tempered by occasional outbursts.
As their relationship takes a sinister turn, Ryan’s estranged brother, Mako, recognizes the danger. He’s well aware of Ryan’s capacity for harm and has played the role of savior before.
However, River hails from Shallow Hill; she’s never been one to be rescued. What Mako fails to perceive is that River is more than capable of safeguarding herself.
The true source of fear should be Ryan.
