The New York Times–bestselling author delivers “a page-turner full of mystery and suspense, keeping the reader engaged every step of the way” (Fresh Fiction).

The note wasn’t a threat, exactly. But for Corey Donahue, who’d witnessed her mother’s murder as a child, it felt very menacing. Surprisingly, the one person she trusted to show the note to was a man merely renting a room from her—Austin Mendez. Traumatized since childhood, Corey had never trusted men . . . until Austin moved in.

Six years undercover had caused Austin to shut everyone out . . . until Corey. The vulnerability she hid from others made him yearn to break down the walls she’d erected around her heart. And with a killer closing in, two lost souls were discovering the trust they’d lost—and much more—in each other’s arms.

“Two emotionally wounded characters draw readers into Lee’s story. Steady pacing, efficient and in-depth writing and a suspenseful plot keep the pages turning.” —RT Book Reviews (4 stars)
