Sinopsis

Ashley Freeman, a beautiful, bright art student, had what she thought was just a fling with Michael O'Connell, a blue-collar bad boy. But now, no amount of pleading or reasoning can discourage his phone calls, ardent e-mails, and constant, watchful gaze. For Michael's brash, handsome features conceal a black and empty soul. Control is his religion and rage is his language. In desperation, Ashley turns to her divorced paretns and her mother's new partner -three people locked in a cold triangle of resentment. But their fierce devotion to Ashley is the common bond that will draw them together to face down a predator. For Ashley's family, her ordeal is a test of primal love that will drive them to the extreme edge -and beyond- in a battle of wills that escalates into a life-ordeath war to protect their own.
