*****Trigger Warning***** This book contains mature themes, physical, sexual and emotional abuse. My name is Lillian Blackwood. I thought my life was over. I had been beaten down and controlled by my ex both emotionally and physically for years. It was, do or die. Fortunately, I survived, and with therapy and time, I finally started some semblance of a life. The very last thing I was looking for was love. I hate dating, and quite frankly, I'm not a fan of men and who can blame me? I keep a very tight circle of friends, so I was surprised when love pushed and shoved its way into my life. But not all fairytales have happy endings, and my tale certainly gives happiness a run for its money.

Malam itu mengubah dirinya selamanya—antara rasa bersalah, kehilangan, dan kenyataan pahit bahwa kota bisa merenggut apa saja, bahkan yang paling suci. Di tengah luka itu, hadir Aditya Mahendra—seorang pria tampan dari kampus, dingin namun romantis, yang mampu membuat Alya kembali merasakan getar cinta. Namun cinta bukanlah pelarian, sebab rahasia kelam masa lalu Alya membayanginya setiap saat.
