When Lyra's life is brutally turned upside down, she's left with nothing but the river that saves her from certain death. Waking up with memory loss in the village of Oakdale, she was adopted and named Kyra, she became a talented artist and cook, hiding her painful past behind a mask of creativity and determination. But the shadows of her past refuse to stay buried, as the ruthless Sophia, who will stop at nothing to keep her secrets safe, continues her deadly schemes. Meanwhile, Stephen, the man she loved, is consumed by guilt and a relentless search for Lyra.
As Kyra, (once Lyra) and Stephen's paths converge once more, they must confront the darkness that haunts them both and face the evil that threatens to destroy their lives. In the tale of "Taming the Godfather," two broken souls must confront their past, and Lyra playing the big role of taming the godfather, Stephen, with the power of love.
