When the memories of family are buried so deep that they no longer exist, darkness takes their place. 

Fire can bring comfort or destruction. For Riley Rivers, it brings both. Since she was a child, she trusted the flames to destroy her intrusive thoughts and offer a temporary escape from the darkness in her mind. But after the past threatens the only family she has left, she no longer finds comfort in the ashes as the web of lies concealing her childhood begins to unravel. Riley is consumed by the harsh reality of abuse and loss, and struggles to deal with the traumatic moments that took her family.

Lost in the darkness of her past, Riley leans toward the only glimpse of light that enters her life, Benjamin Glass. As a God-fearing Christian, Ben can guide Riley toward grace, love, and redemption with God. But with a degree in psychology, Riley struggles to put faith over science.
