Lyla:
Life wasn't always easy. Not for a woman who had a child before marriage in a house where your father is a pastor. I try my hardest to give my daughter the life she deserves. I decided right after moving to New York with my sister that in order to give her the best life possible. No men could be in the picture....and then I met Shane.
Shane:
Women have always been a soft spot for me. No woman has ever seen me more than a biker, a piece of shit, worthless. Until I meet Lyla. She doesn't let my attitude determine her life. She gives me her sass and kindness all mixed together in a southern bell. Then one day, her past catches up to us
CHANCE: The nightmares are what keep me up at night, but it's the screams that haunt me when I'm awake that are the real problem. It's been years since that dreadful night. Years of torture, of pain. Years of seeing their faces as the light stops shining from their eyes. She reminds me of them. Young. Innocent. Too good for this world. Too good for me.
ABBY: I've been his admirer. Hidden in the shadows of his fears. He has nightmares that haunt even me. I wish to be his escape but he doesn't notice me. Doesn't see me within his light. So I'll stay in the shadows. I'll wait forever for him.
