Publisher's Synopsis
Jamie Ness is homeless and on the run. His father attacked him which left no choice but for Jamie to leave everything behind. He's going as far as his two feet will take him, to put as much distance between himself and his past as he can. His deepest fear is that his father will realize the mistake he made in throwing away the only money coming into their home and hunt for him. Putting distance between his father and wherever he stopped was his greatest priority. After walking for days, it was impossible to turn down a hot meal when Chris Rose pulled up at his side on the outskirts of a town he didn't know. Offering the young man a helping hand was ingrained in Chris. Something to eat, a warm bed, and safety, even if he could only get Jamie to agree to one night. He would have offered that and more to the young man with the shadowed eyes. Except more trouble was looming for the younger Jamie, and nothing in his life could have prepared him for Chris's secrets.
