Shadows Collide
(2026)(The first book in the Silver Creek Falls series)
A Story by Bella Blaze and Blake Trystin
Before Silver Creek Falls…there were shadows.
Kiara Cross thought she had found something real, a man who listened, who brought her books,
who made her feel seen. But love can turn possessive, and devotion can become a cage. One year
after moving in with Derek, Kiara barely recognizes herself. Isolated, controlled, and walking on
eggshells in her own home, she realizes the most dangerous prison isn’t made of walls, it’s built
from manipulation and fear.
Staff Sergeant Thomas ‘Savage’ LaBrash survived combat overseas, earning a Silver Star for
courage under fire. But coming home is its own battlefield. Determined to build something
meaningful from the chaos, he founds VOCE Consulting, a security firm forged from loyalty,
grit, and second chances. As his company rises from a fledgling operation to a force operating in
the shadows, Savage believes he’s finally found his new mission.
Then Kiara runs.
A broken car on a dark forest road.
A woman with nothing left to lose.
A man trained to assess threats in seconds.
Their worlds collide in the quiet wilderness near Silver Creek Falls, where predators aren’t
always who you expect, and sometimes survival means trusting the most dangerous stranger of
all.
Shadows Collide is a gripping prequel of control, courage, and the moment two fractured lives
intersect, setting the stage for the explosive events to come.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
