Gabrielle Wells was everything Danny Anderson shouldn't want. She was his opposite in every way, but he couldn't keep his distance, and fate seemed to push them together at every turn. She consumed him, and the more he learned about her, the more he realized she was exactly what he didn't know he needed. But then past mistakes forced him to walk away and never look back, breaking Gabrielle's heart in the process. Fast forward six years, and it seems as if fate is intervening again. Danny, now a best-selling rap artist, returns to his hometown, and is reunited with the only girl he's ever loved. Gabrielle isn't the girl he left behind, though, and Danny realizes life has thrown her quite a few curves. But he will stop at nothing to get her back, refusing to let his true desires-love and family-continue to elude him. However, when Danny's past crashes into his present, threatening everyone he loves and everything he's fought for, he must decide if his promise to Gabrielle of "always" is worth the risk. Warning: Scenes of violence and attempted rape.
