Shattered Pieces

She came to the mountains to disappear. But some secrets refuse to stay buried.

Laci Capwell is a ghost in her own life. Haunted by a past she can't outrun and a loss that nearly broke her, she flees to the quiet, snow-dusted town of South Hillsbend. It's her sanctuary, a place to pick up the shattered pieces of her existence and start over where no one knows her name.

Tai Jackson doesn't do complications. As the owner of the Blackwood Grill, he values order, loyalty, and the peace of his mountain home. But when Laci walks into his restaurant, he sees a flicker of terror in her eyes and a wall around her heart that he's determined to climb.

The closer he gets, the more dangerous the silence becomes.

Laci knows the rules of survival: don't get noticed, don't stay in one place, and never, ever let someone get close. Because the shadow hunting her doesn't just want her back, it wants to destroy anyone who stands in its way.

As the mountain air turns cold and the feeling of being watched becomes a chilling reality, Laci must decide whether to run again or finally stand her ground. When the past finally arrives in South Hillsbend, Tai and Laci will find themselves caught in a deadly game where the cost of love might be their very lives.
