After ten years in prison for voluntary manslaughter, all Riot Asher wants is to earn back the love of his hometown. When Nicolette Parker returns to Godot, West Virginia, asking for him, he knows he's in trouble. Not just because she's a renowned journalist but because he can't stop thinking about her.
As an investigative journalist, being embroiled in a near-career ending scandal is the last thing Nicolette wants to be remembered for. When she finds herself back home in Godot, alongside Riot, she knows he could be her last opportunity to redeem her professional credibility.
Except the more time she spends with Riot, the more the lines between truth and fiction begin to blur. And the more tempted she becomes to throw away her carefully outlined boundaries.
But Godot isn't the town either of them remembers. Its long buried secrets, if unearthed, will jeopardize more than just their chances at love and redemption.
The only thing for certain is that once their lives collide, their tomorrows will never look the same.
