Gilly Soloman has been reduced to a mothering machine, taking care of everyone and everything except herself. Burned out and exhausted by the endless days of crying children and menial tasks, Gilly doesn’t immediately consider the consequences when she’s carjacked. With a knife to her throat, her first thought is that she’ll finally get some rest. Someone can save her for a change.

But salvation isn’t so forthcoming. Stranded in a remote, snowbound cabin with this stranger, hours turn to days, days into weeks. As time forges a fragile bond between them, she learns her captor is not the lunatic she first believed, but a human being whose wasted life has been shaped by secrets and tragedy. Yet even as their connection begins to foster trust, Gilly knows she must never forget he’s still a man
teetering on the edge, one who’s not about to let her leave. And she cannot stay.
