Losing her family and nearly dying changed Annabella forever. Scarred physically and emotionally, there is a lot to overcome. The culprit behind their deaths was never exposed. Her desire to know what really happened so many years ago causes an emptiness in her heart she feels nothing and no one can fill.
Striving to achieve success and to put that survivor label behind her, Annabella trains in self-defense and never shies away from danger or things that intimidates her. The last thing she expects when she falls in love for the first time in her life, with Ivan Sokolov, is to learn that the man she loves is connected to it all.
