She lost everything in a world of glittering lies. She'll find everything in a town of haunting truths.
Tulin "Tulu" Evdal-Sandalci had it all: a stellar career as an architect, a billionaire fiancé, and a life of luxury. Until she discovered it was all a carefully staged lie. Leaving her humiliation in the dust of Istanbul, she flees to the only place she has left: the tiny, sun-drenched Aegean village of Alaçaköy, her mother's hometown.
But Alaçaköy holds more than just solace. It holds Kaan Demir.
Brooding, silent, and devastatingly handsome, Kaan is the town's master boatbuilder, haunted by a past tragedy that left him believing he is more monster than man. He watches Tulu with a gaze that is equal parts reverence and feral possession.
As Tulu rebuilds her life, stone by stone, she uncovers secrets in her mother's journal-whispers of a tragic accident that wasn't an accident, and a guilt that ties her family's past to Kaan's. But the greatest danger isn't the past. It's the ex who can't let his prized possession go, and the unsettling feeling that someone else is watching from the shadows...
For fans of The Bronze Horseman and The Simple Wild, this is a dark, swoon-worthy romance set against a backdrop of salt-sprayed air and whispered secrets.
