Magical secrets have killer consequences...
Avery has been plagued with nightmares ever since the tragic fire that killed her parents. Over a decade later and she still can’t shake the trauma of that night or the belief that it had somehow been her fault. Determined to outrun her demons, all she wants is to finish her senior year and put Echo Valley behind her.
Finding a body in the woods had never been a part of that plan so when she is labeled the prime suspect, it destroys the illusion of her ordinary life. She is forced to question everything she believed to be true when the arrival of a moody detective draws attention to her family’s dark secrets. Secrets that they will all wish had stayed buried.
Hunter Reed’s investigation and the undeniable spark between them, only serves to alienate her further. Terrified and alone, she has no one else to turn to when the killer chooses her for their next victim. Trusting him means accepting that the supernatural are real and that her nightmares might just be something far more sinister…
*Fans of enemies to lovers romances will obsess over this high stakes Urban fantasy filled with unexpected twists and a mystery that will keep them guessing.*
