The note wasnβt a threat, exactly. But for Corey Donahue, whoβd witnessed her motherβs 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 herβAustin 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 sheβd erected around her heart. And with a killer closing in, two lost souls were discovering the trust theyβd lostβand much moreβin each otherβs arms.
