She has a new face, a new name, and a new career. As part of her new life, Mari must forget all aspects of her former existence. She was to remain dead to everyone, including her family and most importantly the man she loved, Reid.
Mari is a successful businesswoman now; however, she has not been able to make peace with losing Reid. She decides to exorcise his memory by visiting the last place they went together. Little did she know that Reid would be visiting to say goodbye to his own memories of a dead woman. The two meet and are still drawn to each other. Yet, Mari knows that to tell Reid the truth will put both of them in peril. Now that she has found him, can she give him up again? Will either of them have a choice for their futures as a mad man schemes to finish what he started three years ago?
