    Summary

    Caitlyn is a decorated combat veteran who barely escaped death during an ambush, one that cost an eye and earned her plenty of physical and mental scars of war. Vi, on the other hand, is a guarded woman from years of a brutal and wrongful incarceration. She’s angry and refuses to let anyone but the remnants of her family close again.

    Their paths cross in the waiting room of a psychiatric clinic. Caitlyn is seeking peace from the nightmares and memories she can’t control yet again. Vi is there because she has to be. She had to choose between therapy or returning to prison for assault.

    As Caitlyn digs into a case that was previously closed, they find themselves interacting far more than intended. They grow closer through truth and lies. They try to heal together through fragile trust and a few blurred lines along the way.

    Maybe in finding the truth, they find something more. Something that tastes a little too much like love.
