Description:
Mara Voss has survived everything by staying small: the father who blamed her for her mother's death, the boyfriend who cheated with her sister, the ghost of a first love who vanished without a trace.
When a handsome stranger at a hotel bar looks exactly like the boy she lost, Mara doesn't think clearly. And when that same stranger turns out to be her attending physician — steady, brilliant, coolly professional — she tells herself it means nothing.
She's wrong.
Julian Clark has spent years looking for a way to protect the woman his half-brother loved. When Mara's heart finally gives out, he has one chance to save her — and one unbearable price to pay.
A dark, devastating romance about love, sacrifice, and the heartbeat that refuses to let go.
*Some people leave pieces of themselves behind. Others leave everything.*
