Phoebe Lynch doesn't want to be her boyfriend's punching bag any longer, so she runs to the other side of the country to get away from him. Lying to her family about why she's really there, all she wants to do is find the woman she used to be before she got beaten down and lost all her self-esteem. What she doesn't want is to fall for another alpha male. Especially one who could crush her battered heart.
