As the clock struck midnight , Silas lay awake, envisioning a day of adventure with her older brother, Edward. The anticipation of a shopping trip ignites a longing for both his approval and a deeper connection that hovers beneath their surface relationship—a dangerous dance fraught with familial love and burgeoning passion.
