Surviving the truth almost kills them. Living the lie is far worse. Drugged and carried off to a dilapidated homestead in central Missouri, 18-year-old Christopher August Daley III – St. Louis’s spoiled, snobby “Billionaire Boy” – finds himself at the mercy of kidnappers greedy for ransom and brutal for sport. Literally caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, Reece Wyndham is abducted along with Christopher. The popular, athletic and pretty teenager has nothing in common with Christopher, who uses his very worst personality traits to keep Reece safe. The traumatic event brings Christopher and Reece closer, but in the aftermath of their rescue, it is Reece’s strength and caring that saves Christopher from his living nightmare.
