Some obsessions don't die. They just learn to wait.
Vera had forgotten about the boy from high school-the quiet outsider she was kind to when no one else was. The one who disappeared without a trace after she turned him down.
He never forgot her.
Ten years later he comes back. New name. New face. New everything. And he has been patient long enough.
When Vera walks into her parents' home one cold night and finds them bound at her own dining table, she comes face-to-face with a man she doesn't recognize-and a darkness she can't outrun.
She thinks she can survive him. She thinks she can stay until her parents are free and then never look back.
She doesn't know yet that Lucian Vail doesn't let go of the things he loves.
Especially not his Red Petal.
Book One of the 'Petals in the Veil' series.
The story of Vera and her hunt for the truth continues in Book Two.
