One would think a nomadic life would be peaceful drifting from place to place, hiking scenic trails across the western U.S. But no matter how far I go, I can’t outrun the event that drove me from my hometown in Mississippi. Now, in Pinebrook, California, tucked just outside Yosemite National Park, I cling to the hope that fresh air and distance might finally quiet the monstrous narrative in my mind. Content to keep to myself, I take a temporary job with a plan to disappear in six months—no attachments. Then a freak accident puts me on his radar. Noah Sullivan is too kind. Too observant.

I fled to Boston years ago, leaving behind a life I’ve tried to forget. After scraping to get by for most of that time, I became a preschool teacher. The joy these children bring almost makes me forget my past. Almost. When the father of one of my students takes a special interest in me, I hesitate. He’s infuriating, and letting my guard down is a mistake. Kieran O’Donnell isn’t who I assumed. Beneath the sharp edges and disarming charm is a man doing his best to raise his daughter. He might be someone I can confide in after all—someone who could help me.

Nine years. That’s how long I spent in a relationship wasted on my ex. When my world crumbles apart in front of me, I make a desperate escape.

Finding solace in his expertise and kindness, he might just be the one to help me rebuild more than just my home. But beneath the town’s quaint facade lies a darkness: an untouchable drug lord whose operation has poisoned the very place I now call home.
