A body in my marina. A murdered journalist with evidence that got him killed. Now I’m tangled in a conspiracy — and the new police chief risking everything to protect me.
Then Connor Hayes walks onto my dock.
Badge on his belt. Whiskey-gold eyes that see straight through me. The kind of quiet authority that makes a woman forget her own rules.
The next night, the shooters come. And I know this isn't a warning.
Surviving together strips away every careful defense. His hands steady mine in the dark. His body between me and the danger.
He makes me feel safe. Wanted. Terrified.
The deeper we dig, the closer we get to a name I never expected —
My mentor. The woman who disappeared twenty years ago while everyone looked the other way.
Everyone except my father. The former sheriff knew exactly what happened to her.
Now someone wants me silenced. And Connor may be the only thing standing between me and the same fate.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
