At 24, Kaitlyn Monroe is already living the life she dreamed of, working as a pediatrician, helping children, and in a long-term relationship with Lucas Grayson, the man she thought she'd spend forever with. Intelligent, composed, and quietly passionate, Kaitlyn prides herself on being loyal and doing the right thing, even when it's hard. But lately, things haven't been the same. Her relationship with Lucas has grown distant, and they haven't really talked in weeks. When her best friend Aubrey Collins invites her to spend the summer at a shared beach house with friends and Lucas's friends, whom she can't stand-Kaitlyn is hesitant. But deep down, she hopes this trip can help mend the cracks forming between her and Lucas. She's not prepared for Matthew Lawson.

What starts as irritation quickly becomes intrigue, and Kaitlyn finds herself torn between the comfort of the life she's built... and the chaos of something new, something electric, something dangerously tempting. In a summer drenched in laughter, jealousy, secrets, and stolen glances, Kaitlyn is faced with a choice: stay true to what's safe, or cross the line for what might finally set her free.
All The Days I Was Gone
My feet sank into the damp, muddy earth as I fled through the field. I could feel my heart pounding rapidly against my bruised chest, and I could hear his rasping breath as he chased after me. "I can't let him catch me." Forrest Peterson was sixteen when she disappeared without a trace. There were no leads, no trails, no body to be found. There were no witnesses or suspects. She was just gone. A year and a half after her disappearance, Forrest is found bloody, broken, and desperate to be rescued. She escaped from her captors and longs to find normalcy in her life again, starting with the handsome and familiar man who saved her. Everything should be falling in place after the eighteen months she was missing, but there's a problem. Forrest doesn't remember anything. She doesn't remember being kidnapped, she doesn't remember what happened, she doesn't remember who her kidnappers are. Her mind is blank, and she fears her kidnappers identities will never be revealed. As Forrest struggles to find her place back in life she slowly begins unraveling the fragments of her memory, uncovering the painful secrets her past holds. The truth of what happened that fateful day and the horrors she faced is just a flashback away, and she wants the answers as soon as she can get them. But Forrest is running out of time. The monsters are still out there, and they're much closer than she thinks. *Pictures are not mine and belong to their rightful photographers*Lengkap
