“As questions about [Lily’s] new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind,” reads the publisher notes. “He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened.”
