She attracts women effortlessly, then discards them after an hour or two of mutual pleasure. They meet at a party celebrating Parker's divorce, and they're tailor-made for a no-strings encounter. Yet when their paths cross again, lightning strikes, and both women begin to question their life rules in the face of undeniable passion and growing love.

But demons past and dangers present threaten the lovers, and Parker and Sydney must fight to find new traditions in dark spaces as they cling to the relationship neither of them thought she wanted.
