⋆˚࿔ - Angelina's life was never easy-but losing her brother broke her completely. Now, at the BAU, she hunts criminals for justice... and answers. But when a new genius joins the team, everything changes. Threatened, challenged, and drawn to someone who might finally understand her, Angelina has to face her past... before it catches up with her.

The Outer Banks is a place where storms never stay on the horizon for long. Maisen Jade Lewis has always felt them coming, whether it is weather patterns, secrets, the way danger hangs in the air before it finally crashes down. She grew up on the edge of the island's wealth, full born Kook as they say, caught between the gold-plated world of her father's estate and the saltwater freedom of the Pogues. For years, she's managed to ride both currents, until now. When Big John's tape resurfaces, the hunt for the Merchant gold isn't the only thing dragging the Pogues deeper into uncharted waters. Big John left a message not just for his son but for Maisen too. A cryptic warning about her father, Alexander Lewis, and truths that could tear open everything she thought she knew about him... and herself. Maisen isn't the type to let anyone fight her battles for her. Not even JJ Maybank, the reckless, sharp-tongued Pogue who somehow keeps finding his way past her defenses. Together, their story unfolds in the riptide-pulled between loyalty and lies, love and survival, treasure and betrayal. The deeper they dive, the more dangerous the water becomes. Because storms don't just break on the Outer Banks-they uncover everything buried beneath. #1 in P4L 11/7/25 #1 in katiedouglas 12/27/25 Book One of the Riptide Series-Season One of Outer Banks.
