Surviving a kidnapping by Bandits, escaping into the night with no idea where to go, she then found Rafael, the handsome stranger who would help her avenge her husbands death. But, did he have his own agenda? Would he truly help her or just use her then throw her away? Paula's life and future lay in this strangers hands. Could she trust him? Would he help her find the life she wanted and deserved? Only moving forward would Paula find the answers she so desperately needed.
