When Connor and Pilar meet, best-laid plans quickly go awry.
In the midst of their struggle to understand the power of their connection and reconcile what they thought they wanted with what they know they need, Pilars family and Connors club collide. The result is explosive, and the aftermath leaves no one unscarred.
Can they come through the fire and dark together?
