Publisher's Synopsis
When a killer returns, more than one life is on the line
A devastating heartbreak pushed Mia Tulley to start a new life in Pine Valley, Tennessee. A life she's tried her hardest to put back together. She can overcome her life savings being stolen by her conniving ex-fiance. She can even tolerate living next door to her frustratingly sexy boss with a chip on her shoulder. But stumbling along a buried body in the middle of the woods just might be her breaking point. Chet Black chose a life of solitude after his wife and daughter were violently killed--their murderer never found. Solitude that his pesky kitchen assistant and neighbor has invaded. When Mia discovers a body with a wrist singed with the same markings burned into his own flesh, Chet is sucked back into a past he'd give anything to forget. When the killer leaves threatening messages for Mia, Chet can't turn his back--even if being near her opens his barricaded heart in a way he never expected. Or wanted. He'd give his own life rather than see someone else he cares for murdered. When the stakes are raised, neither Mia or Chet may make it out alive.
