- When the Pogues suggests using Briar to get information out of Rafe, it sounds simple enough. Pretend to care, get close, find out what he knows. Easy. Except Rafe isn't what the Pogues described as a crazy killer. Beneath the anger and the psychotic mess, there's something human there, something soft. Something broken that she can't help but want to mend. - After two years away, Brielle Logan Langley thought she'd left her non-biological family in Outer Banks behind. But when she moves back, nothing is the same. Rafe Cameron is a murderer, John B gets thrown into jail, and now they're on a new quest to find the cross of Santo Domingo. Through the journey Briar's caught between loyalty and the one person she swore she'd never fall for again. But she can't help the undeniable pull between them. She doesn't want to admit it, but her heart aches for Rafe Cameron. Set in Outer Banks, following the plot from s2-s3 tropes: - forced proximity - betrayal - angry love confession - one bed - mean to everyone but her - lovers, to enimies, to lovers - cleaning wounds !Read intro for disclaimers!

"I learned too late that safety can feel like love." A marriage built for appearances. A husband taught to stay detached. A wife who never asked to be protected. As Amara Hale and Rafe Cameron learn how to exist in the same space, quiet moments begin to shift everything - and love appears where it was never meant to survive.

𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 Stasia Maybank shouldn't be falling for Rafe Cameron. He's reckless, dangerous, and everything she promised to stay away from. But the harder she fights him, the deeper she falls-risking her heart and everything she's built. Some loves burn too bright to ignore, even when they threaten to destroy you.

❛She stared at him wordlessly, but he noticed the way she was fixated on his lips before flickering to connect their gazes, a spark of heat blooming deep in his abdomen that had him licking his lips, thoughts filled with scenarios where either one of them would make the first move, but the ending was just the same - he'd finally be able to taste the enticement that was Aurora Capulet.❜ • ― WHERE the dance of the devil had never been so sweet, and the touch of the angel had never been so poisonous. Aurora Capulet tries to discover the truth in the midst of her struggles, and the return of her greatest nightmare threatens to ruin her life once again, but this time, Rafe Cameron will sacrifice heaven and hell to save her.

In the sun-soaked chaos of the Outer Banks, Cassie Maybank has always known her place - a Pogue, loyal to the Cut, and sister to JJ, the island's most reckless troublemaker. But when a stormy twist of fate pulls her into the orbit of Rafe Cameron- the wealthy, volatile Kook everyone warns her about - the line between hate and desire begins to blur. He's danger wrapped in charm, a hurricane in human form. She's the one person who sees through the cracks in his perfect façade. Together, they ignite something neither of them can control - a connection that burns hotter than the Carolina sun and darker than the secrets that tie them both to the island's divide. In the Outer Banks, love isn't simple. It's survival. And when tides turn, someone always gets pulled under.
