He was supposed to be one unforgettable night, not the man who makes me feel safe enough to stop running. But when danger follows me to Braeden Creek, Austin Kinley’s protective instincts collide with buried secrets, a deadly betrayal, and a romance neither of us can walk away from.
For months, I’ve kept my head down, working behind the bar at Creekside Bar & Grill and building a quiet life where no one asks questions. It’s safe. It has to be. Because if the wrong person finds me, everything I ran from will catch up to me.
Reconnecting with Austin Kinley wasn’t part of the plan.
A year ago, he was one reckless night I never forgot, even when I tried to convince myself it didn’t matter. Now I’m back in his town, and the connection between us is just as strong. And just as dangerous. The more time I spend with him, the harder it is to keep my distance, and the easier it becomes to forget why I need to.
Then there’s the stranger who keeps showing up. Watching. Waiting. Always a little too close. I know what that means. I’ve been found.
But the deeper this goes, the less sense it makes. The fear, the unease, the feeling that something isn’t right. That maybe I’ve been focused on the wrong threat all along. Because the truth is more dangerous than I ever imagined, and when it finally comes to light, I’ll have to decide if I keep running… or trust the one man who makes me feel safe enough to fight.
The problem? The real danger isn’t who I thought it was.
It’s the one I never saw coming.
