He's hiding from his past, she is running from hers. No one would could have guessed their pasts would collide in the Montana Mountains...

I need a safe place to get away for a few days. My college roommate's family cabin in the middle of nowhere Montana is perfect.

Maybe I should have called to ask permission first, then I would have found out the cabin had been sold... to Jack.

I go to leave planning to spend the night in my car... only my car won't start.

Jack may take pity on me and offer to let me stay a few nights until my car is fixed, but he doesn't know I have no place to go from there.

I won't be safe anywhere.

But my past catches up with me all too quickly in the small Montana town and now I'm out of time...

Jack

I finally got my own cabin in the Whiskey River mountains.

Only it wasn't supposed to come with a curvy temptress in my living room.

I'm unsure of her intentions until I see the bruises on her skin.

I vow whoever put them there will pay, I will protect this woman at costs.

Only I never could have guessed how truly entwined our pasts really are and now I know I'm the last person who she should feel safe with.

Even if she is the only person who can truly pull me from the darkness...
