She’s investigating a cold case no one else could—by going places no else would dare.

In spite of a harrowing past still haunting her, Gwen Proctor is trying to move forward. Until a new assignment gives her purpose: the cold-case disappearance of a young man in Tennessee. Three years missing, no clues. Just Ruth Landry, a tortured mother in limbo. Gwen understands what it’s like to worry about your children.

Gwen’s investigation unearths new suspects…and victims. As she follows each sinister lead, the implications of the mystery grow more disturbing. Because the closer Gwen gets, the closer she is to a threat that looms back home.

In a town that’s closed its ranks against Gwen; her partner, Sam; and her kids, there’s no bolder enemy than the Belldene family—paramilitary, criminal, powerful, and vengeful. As personal vendettas collide with Gwen’s investigation, she’s prepared to fight both battles. But is she prepared for the toll it could take on everyone she loves?

Description: “I can’t forget about that kiss, Elsie.” His hand comes up to cup my cheek, stroking the skin gingerly. “I don’t want to,” he whispers so lowly I almost don’t hear. His gaze falls to my lips once again.

Elsie Archer and Hayden Jones have been best friends since they were four; the two are almost inseparable.

But that is when Hayden isn’t falling for a new girl. Elsie thinks her best friend’s only flaw is that he falls too quickly and too hard. She has seen him charm many girls and has cheered him on. Little does he know that her feel-ings for him have been growing steady for years.

Now on their senior year, will Elsie find the courage to tell Hayden what she really feels? Or will she remain in the safety of the friendship they’ve nurtured for years?

This young adult romance story will surely break your heart, but it’s worth the bittersweet hurt. Grab your copy now!
