We're all running away from something. Question is, can we escape it? Eleanor Price has a traumatic past that she's spent her life trying to hide. After she successfully joins the FBI's Behavioural Analysis Unit, she convinces herself that she's finally moved on and the skeletons will stay in the closet. But ten years later, when she's called back to her home town for an abduction case, can she keep her demons at bay? Or will all hell break loose? One would've thought that keeping your true feelings hidden was easy. Heck, she'd been doing it her whole life. But when Spencer Reid pushes through her emotionless facade, will he be the one to calm the storm? Or will he too fall victim to her torturous past? Fear loves to play, but sometimes nightmares need to be forgotten to be able to save lives. Wouldn't you agree? Secrets untold and a past relived, can Eleanor make it through this case without shutting down? Or will some monsters be harder to fight than others?

PAST RELATIONSHIPS CAN HAUNT YOU...BUT IT'S NEVER SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THIS! Everyone said Finch House was haunted, but Emma Baker never saw the ghost of Eleanor Finch over the eighteen years she lived there, no matter how much her or her childhood best friend and neighbor Cade Carter tried. Now, six years after Emma left Finch House to chase a boy and seven years after Cade was kicked out of his house by his parents for the terrible act of turning eighteen, Cade has purchased Finch House from Emma's mother and he wants to finally catch Eleanor. What begins as a simple night of ghost-hunting becomes a journey into past relationships neither of them were ready to relive. While Cade might have had a plan to nab himself a spirit, it seems Eleanor has a plan of her own...a plan to help both of them nab something much more real than they ever could have guessed.

Aern's only job is to protect the chosen. The trouble is, she's the key to a prophecy and everyone wants her. Hiding a girl in the center of a secret war is tricky business, but when her sister shows up to take Aern hostage, all bets are off. A slim brunette in borrowed jeans should be the least of his problems, but there's something about Emily he just can't put to rights. And it's not her penchant for using hand tools as weapons or the fact that she seems immune to his sway. Everything about her screams run. But when he discovers she's working toward her own prophecy, he's got no choice but to keep her safe. It might have been easy, if she didn't think she was the chosen's protector. When the opposition descends, their only hope is to stick together, but the truth unravels, and together might prove the biggest complication of them all.
