"Love doesn't survive the hunt. Unless it fights harder than the monsters." Riley Singer was born into the life-raised on salt lines, Latin prayers, and the echo of gunshots in her father's salvage yard. At eighteen, she's already seen more death than most people live through. But nothing prepared her for falling in love with Sam Winchester, the one man haunted enough to understand her darkness... and kind enough to make her believe in something more. Their connection is undeniable-and dangerous. Bobby Singer isn't just her father, he's Sam's oldest friend. Lines get crossed, hearts get tangled, and the world doesn't pause for anyone to figure it out. Together, Sam and Riley face down ghosts, demons, cursed graveyards, and impossible choices. But the monsters outside aren't the only threat. Between Sam's reawakening psychic powers, a pregnancy scare, and a kidnapping that nearly destroys them, Riley finds herself standing at a crossroads between the hunter she's been raised to be... and the woman she's becoming. As the bodies pile up and the stakes rise higher, Riley must decide: How far is she willing to go to protect the man she loves? And what will it cost her to carve a future in a world where tomorrow isn't guaranteed?
