Publisher's Synopsis
Rhys Evans
Fourteen years...
For fourteen years he'd lived with the certainty that they'd caught the right guy...convicted the right guy...punished the right guy. While life behind bars didn't make up for what the bastard had done, the families he'd destroyed, or the lives he'd stolen, the fact he'd died a broken, lonely man locked in a cell had been a small comfort. But now Ariel Hamilton was back-the onetime love of his life and the daughter of Dark Fall's infamous serial killer. She rolled into town with her snarky smile, furious eyes and baseless accusations of police corruption. Damn it to hell, Hamilton had been the X-factor killer, Rhys was certain of that-no matter how desperately Ariel was trying to prove him wrong.
Ariel Hamilton
Fourteen years...
For fourteen years she'd lived with the knowledge her father had been framed, and watched him waste away in prison for crimes he hadn't committed. Nobody had believed her back then. Even Rhys, the boy she'd loved with all her heart, had walked away. It had been a hard lesson, but she'd learned it well-count on no one. Well she finally had proof of her dad's innocence. Proof that Dark Falls police department had framed an innocent man and covered it up...were still covering it up. She wasn't nineteen anymore, she wouldn't be cowed and ran out of town. She'd stay and fight to clear her father's name. Even if that meant drawing the real killer out...even if that meant making herself a target and losing a second chance with the only man she'd ever loved.
