SILENT HUNTER - ON HOLD

Forks has always been a town of shadows and silence-and so has its chief.
Charlie Swan has lived most of his life quietly, tucked behind a badge, a routine, and a loneliness he never quite named. Reserved and distant, he keeps to himself, letting the forest and the rain do most of the talking. That is, until his daughter Bella comes home and begins to change everything.
Alongside Bella's return comes Maeve Stanley.
Confident yet gentle, Maeve is everything Charlie isn't-warm, perceptive, and unafraid to speak when silence grows too heavy. Younger than Charlie and strikingly close to Bella's age, she awakens something in him he never expected to feel again. A subtle pull. A dangerous awareness. A connection that simmers quietly beneath stolen glances and unspoken words.
As Forks grows darker and secrets creep in from the edges of the woods, the tension between them deepens-made more complicated by Bella's presence, the town's watchful eyes, and Charlie's own sense of right and wrong.
In a place where silence can be deadly, some feelings are more dangerous than any hunter lurking in the dark.
