"I'll never leave you again."
"Promise?"
"Promise."
"I can't trust that."

Jacob Black couldn't take it anymore. At first, it had seemed everything would go well; Edward would accept him, Bella would understand, and Renesmee would be the light of his life. But the more time he spent with her, the less friendly Bella and Edward were. It was coming between the girl and her parents, and he couldn't be the one to separate them. So he left.
Three years later, Renesmee is fully matured. She's as beautiful as any of the vampires around her, and half-human, which makes it much easier to blend in to human society. Now, the Cullens have moved from Forks, because they couldn't continue to stay in the area. Renesmee loves Denali; she loves the snow, the sun, the variety of animals and plants, and her cousins. She's living her own life, until Jacob returns, and her world is turned over as the best friend that disappeared comes back into her life.
With Bella and Edward wary of the wolf who abandoned their daughter, and with Renesmee both missing her best friend and scared to get attached, Jacob and Renesmee both are having a hard time getting past the world around them. "Soul-mate" becomes a meaningless word to both as hope deteriorates, but there's a new danger on the horizon. A danger that will test and try both of them, and in the end, love will either save them- or kill them.
