A novel by

 
 
Some secrets are meant to stay buried.
But love has a way of digging them up.


EMT Matthew McCabe has seen it all—heart attacks in the back of moving ambulances, overdoses in alleyways, even the occasional gunshot wound. But nothing prepares him for the man pulled from a twisted car wreck with no ID, a bullet lodged in his side, and a story he refuses to tell.

The man vanishes from the hospital before Matthew can learn his name.

Until he shows up again at Matthew's door—bleeding, hunted, and very much alive.

Dorian Wallace was supposed to be dead. It was cleaner that way. But a mission gone sideways and a body count that won’t stop growing have forced him out of the shadows. Now he needs help—and for reasons even he can’t explain, he turns to the EMT who saved his life.

Matthew knows he should report him. But something in Dorian’s eyes—sharp, haunted, and unexpectedly vulnerable—keeps him from walking away. Instead, Matthew finds himself pulled into a deadly game of buried files, coded messages, and a conspiracy that was never meant to resurface.

As danger closes in and their connection deepens, both men are forced to confront what they’re running from.

Because the past always catches up.
