**This book is not the final version; this is my non-edited rough draft. **** In the forgotten town of Grayer's Hollow, silence is sacred-because when it breaks, something wakes. When twelve-year-old Caleb Vayne vanishes from a school parking lot without a trace, grief coils around the community like fog on the moors. But five days later, Caleb returns... alone, barefoot, and blank-eyed, humming a tune no one's ever heard before-and no one wants to hear again. He speaks rarely. Sleeps even less. And when people start dying in the ways they fear most, some begin to suspect the boy who came back isn't quite the boy who left. Now, retired criminal profiler Avery Holt, haunted by her own demons, is pulled into a case where the lines between psychology and the supernatural are razor-thin. Teaming up with local sheriff David Rourke, she begins to unravel a conspiracy tied to the town's long-buried secret: a stretch of forest known as The Hollow, a place the old folks say hums when it's hungry. But what no one realizes is that Caleb didn't just survive the Hollow. He brought something back with him. And it only protects him.

But the moment she steps into Midnight Velvet, the night club wrapped in shadows, secrets, and sin, her life splits in two. On one side is Noah Callahan - the boy with sunlight in his smile, the classmate who watches her like she carried the stars in her hands. Kind, gentle, safe. The kind of love that heals. On the other side is Damian Vescari - the dangerously magnetic owner of Midnight Velvet and the ruthless capo of the Vescari crime family. Cold eyes, sharp tongue, sinful presence. The kind of love that burns. Two men. Two worlds. One girl whose heart doesn't know which direction to fall. But in a universe where loyalty has a price and desire has consequences, Selena is about to learn that choosing between light and darkness is never simple... And sometimes, the most dangerous thing you can do is fall in love.
