River fights to keep her second chance from a homicidal sister.
After her chosen family kills her, River reopens her eyes on the morning her parents divorce. She picks the notorious Garrison ranch instead of her old home, landing under the watch of three ruthless cowboy stepbrothers who treat her safety as their personal war. The twist cuts deeper: her sister also returned from death, and she views River’s fresh start as a prize worth slaughtering anyone to claim. Every protective gesture from the brothers becomes a challenge the sister answers with escalating violence.
