Shadows of Closure by lovelyst4r

When world-renowned detective Elena Graves is summoned back to her sleepy hometown, she's reluctant but intrigued. The local sheriff, Ethan Reid-a former classmate who once mocked her obsession with solving mysteries-has reached out with a chilling case no one else can crack: a serial killer targeting victims with unsettling precision. As Elena and Ethan work together, they uncover a harrowing truth-the killer's ultimate target might be Elena herself. Struggling to stay ahead of the murderer, Ethan takes it upon himself to protect her, a decision driven not just by duty but by guilt for dragging her into the danger. The closer they get to the truth, the more old wounds resurface. Ethan reveals that he pursued law enforcement inspired by Elena's passion and as a way to reconnect with her. But instead of the closure he sought, their partnership reignites feelings he thought he'd buried long ago. In a race against time, Elena must unravel the killer's twisted motives while navigating the tension between her and Ethan. As the mystery deepens, so does their connection, leaving them both to wonder if they can survive the deadly game-or if their rekindled bond will shatter under the weight of the secrets they uncover.
