Mae takes her first real night out since the accident, an expensive cocktail bar, a surly bartender, and a stranger who claims they already know each other. As tequila flows, the night spirals into drinks, revelations, mace-as-a-party-trick, and a dangerous spark she's not sure she can trust. Mae falls into a wild, intoxicating blur with DB, a man who makes her feel alive… and hints he knows secrets she doesn't remember.
