The highly anticipated start of a new romantic suspense series from the beloved, USA Today bestselling author of Ten Tiny Breaths.
Left for dead in the fields of rural Oregon, a young woman defies all odds and survivesβbut she awakens with no idea who she is, or what happened to her. Refusing to answer to βJane Doeβ for another day, the woman renames herself βWaterβ for the tiny, hidden marking on her bodyβthe only clue to her past. Taken in by old Ginny Fitzgerald, a crotchety but kind lady living on a nearby horse farm, Water slowly begins building a new life. But as she attempts to piece together the fleeting slivers of her memory, more questions emerge: Who is the next-door neighbor, quietly toiling under the hood of his Barracuda? Why wonβt Ginny let him step foot on her property? And why does Water feel she recognizes him?
Twenty-four-year-old Jesse Welles doesnβt know how long it will be before Water gets her memory back. For her sake, Jesse hopes the answer is never. He knows that sheβll stay so much saferβand happierβthat way. And thatβs why, as hard as it is, he needs to keep his distance. Because getting too close could flood her with realities better left buried.
The trouble is, water always seems to find its way to the surface.
