Lorraine Reynolds has the kind of life other women envy — the marble house, the judge's ring on her finger, the Instagram-perfect family photos. But behind the gates of Ashcombe Lane, she's disappearing one silence at a time, trading her law degree and her voice for a husband who mistakes control for love. Then a cheerleading competition takes her to the Eastside — a part of town she was taught to avoid — and into the path of Corey Wells. Self-made, silent, and dangerous in all the ways that matter, Corey built an empire out of the wreckage of everything he used to be. He doesn't want to save Lorraine.
