Harriet "Harry" and Desi Basantes spent sixteen years waiting to find each other again, and now they're weeks away from a wedding and the baby they've planned since high school.

Desi's sister Rachel Thompson is happy for them. Rachel might wish for her own grand love affair, but her attraction to Harry's ex Serena Ladding doesn't exactly spell happily ever after. She's pretty sure Serena is still in love with Harry and isn't prepared to take the chance on a broken heart. So then why can't she stop thinking about Serena?

Angola State Penitentiary is one of the toughest prisons in the country, but when Desi's ex-husband Byron Simoneaux sees the chance to run, he does with only one goal in mind: to finish what he started and kill Desi, Rachel, and Harry, the women who stole his life.

Can you really outrun your past? For Harry, Desi, and Rachel, it's a matter of life or death.
