After eight years in prison, twenty-four year old Jordan Kane is the man everyone loves to hate. Forced to return to his hometown while on parole, Jordan soon learns that this small town hasn't changed since he was carted off to juvie all those years ago. He is the local pariah, shunned by everyone, including his own parents. But their hatred of him doesn't even come close to the loathing he feels every time he looks in the mirror. Working odd jobs for the preacher lady, Jordan bides his time before he can leave this backwards town. But can distance erase the memories that haunt him? Trapped in the prison of his own mind Jordan wonders if the pain of living will ever subside? Torrey Delaney is new in town and certainly doesn't behave in a way the locals believe a preacher’s daughter should. Her reputation for casual hook-ups and meaningless sex is the talk of the town. Add that to her budding friendship with the hardened ex-con handyman, and the good Reverend is less than thrilled with her estranged daughter’s path. As friendship forms, is it possible for two damaged people who are afraid to love take their relationship to the next level? Can Torrey live with Jordan’s demons, and can Jordan break through Torrey's walls? With the disapproval of a small town weighing heavily on them, will they find their place in the world? Can they struggle against the odds, or will their world be viciously shattered? Is love a life sentence?

Jane Harvey-Berrick
Jane Harvey-Berrick viveu em Londres por mais de dez anos e tem um caso de amor com Nova York. Foi só depois que se mudou para o campo que as palavras realmente começaram a fluir. Mora em uma pequena vila à beira-mar e caminha com seu cão, Pip, todos os dias. É durante essas caminhadas à beira-mar que ela tem suas melhores ideias. A escrita, para ela, tornou-se um modo de vida que ama compartilhar.
