"He's trouble in a smirk and a leather jacket. I'm the idiot who followed him into the dark. Now we've got a secret we can't bury... and someone who wants to bury us instead."

On April 14th, the suicide of Brooke Bishop is tossed aside as old news. But Layla Robinson's been haunted by the lingering doubt that something more sinister was at play. When more "suicides" follow, Layla's suspicions grow stronger, compelling her to embark on a dangerous quest for the truth. 

Enter Maven Walker, the enigmatic and impossibly handsome new student at her high school. With a reputation for trouble and a past shrouded in mystery, Maven is the last person Layla wants to team up with. But as the bodies pile up, she finds herself reluctantly joining forces with him, drawn by his keen instincts and determination to uncover the killer.

As they delve deeper into the investigation, Layla and Maven unearth secrets that go beyond their small town's darkest corners. Each clue brings them closer to a chilling revelation, and the sparks of animosity between them ignite into an unexpected flame of attraction.

In a race against time, Layla must navigate her growing feelings for Maven while facing the shadows of a cunning murderer. Can they unravel the mystery before the killer strikes again, or will their own hearts be the next victims?

With a murderous secret and a dark history few but Helen Eriksson know, an uncertain path lies ahead of her. Helen's past, present and future are on a collision course with a sense of morality she wonders if she ever possessed. Her husband's corpse is barely cold, laid to rest under a shroud of suspicion directed at her by former peers at the FBI. Revenge boils in her veins against the one who shattered her perfect life, or the carefully constructed illusion of such. One thing Helen does not believe is that coincidences happen. So when an opportunity falls into her lap to slip through the web of the FBI investigation into her ex-husband's murder and darken the doorstep of the man she holds responsible for her professional ruin, Helen is hard pressed to resist the lure. Rather than arriving in Darkwater Bay anonymously, Helen walks with full knowledge into what she understands could be a trap sprung by her nemesis, Danny Datello. But the shield of a police detective's badge can't protect her from what she fears she has become by genetic birthright - a hardened murderer just like the father who shaped her into the woman she has become. What Helen doesn't count on is investment in anything but her own plot of revenge. To her surprise, the discovery of a body mere hours before her arrival in Darkwater Bay draws her into more than her own conflicted desires, but a corrupt city with its own secrets. Even more shocking is the realization that Helen craves more than Datello's punishment; justice for a dead victim.
