Temperance comes from a rich to a poor family after her mom died. She is abused in every way possible. 

It’s hard for her to trust people but when Alec comes into her life she can’t help her undying attraction toward him. 

Alec is a heartthrob that has every girl eyeing him. His dangerous aura makes it seem like his heart is untouchable. As soon as he meets Temperance he realizes that he can’t seem to want to live without her. 

His only goal now? To save her. Her only goal? To get out in any way possible, even if it means death.
