On a late Saturday night, when Lucy should be welcoming him with his usual hot coffee, a tight smile on her face and a fresh buddle of complaints, Aiden Carter finds himself welcomed by a dreadful silence and the news of his wife running away with his beloved daughter.
He has always been in control, the perfect gentleman, the loving father, and the hard-working husband, but it only takes a single night, for him to lose his beloved four years old daughter. His Celine.
With her gone. He feels like he has lost everything.
One evening leads him to a child very much like his own. Sorely tempted, he shoves the screaming child inside his car, hoping that she's his lost daughter, but finds himself mistaken.
Eva is ten years old, tall and utterly gorgeous. She has the same green-grey eyes and dark hair as Celine. As far as looks go, she's exactly like his daughter.
But even though he's falling in love with her with each passing day, the fact remains that she belongs to someone else. He tries to find her family, to return the child, but with no address or phone number, he's stuck with a scared child who won't stop crying.
Torn between love and grief. Aiden goes through the roller coaster of emotions as he struggles to find his Celine and help the child he has kidnapped.
Will he have enough courage to return the girl who looks like Celine to her Mother, or will he give in to his desire and do the worst thing a man can do? Steal someone else's child.

Violet SinClaire
I love this house. I love that it's old and that I have good memories here. I came up here every summer with my brother as a child. It's morbid, I will admit, but then again so am I. But something feels different here this time around.. I feel uneasy, the air feels thicker. Something is calling to me.. or someone. Someone is watching me. The thought instills terror in me and sends waves of fear down my spine.. but I want to know more. I need to know more. What do they want?
