When Skylar’s brother, struggling with addiction, abruptly shows back up in her life, her peace becomes threatened. Trying to protect the life she built for Max becomes increasingly difficult as Chase’s dangerous ties pull them back into his inescapable chaos, and Skylar’s past now forces her to make an impossible decision without blurring the lines of love and safety.
