I'd forgotten my past.

But he hadn't forgotten me...

For as long as I can remember, it's been Mom, the alcohol, and me.

But that's the thing: there was a past, before the accident.

Then amnesia robbed me of my first twelve years of memories.

Mom confides only in the bottle, so I'm left guessing what kind of childhood I had.

But now I'm back in the town where I grew up, and for the first time, I have answers to my questions—answers I never saw coming.

I'm not the same person I was—but neither is Ashton De Santis.

A bare-knuckle fighter in the ring, rippling with power . . . and my childhood best friend.

As Ashton gently reintroduces me to our history, it's difficult not to let old affections catch alight.

Because if I lose him again, it'll haunt me for a lifetime.

For fans of Tijan, Jay Crownover and L.A. Cotton, get ready to fall in love with this heart-warming childhood friends to lovers book. This new adult novel, is a standalone, set in the Crown Village world.
