When Emma stumbles out of Silent Pines Lodge, she’s the only one left alive. Blood stains her hands, the screams still lodged in her ears. Now she’s the key witness to a nightmare and under the watch of the one man who refuses to let her fall.

Detective Ryan Hale trusts discipline, not chance. But the moment he sees Emma, shaken yet unbroken, something shifts. Her sharp gaze, the edge in her voice she rattles his control in ways he never expects.

Sealed off in protective custody, the space between them grows tight. Nights stretch long, tension sharper than the silence. A touch becomes a question, a glance becomes heat, and desire threads through every move they make. But the danger isn’t over. The killer is still out there, and each step toward the truth pushes them into deeper peril.

As shadows close in, Emma and Ryan face a choice that cuts deeper than survival. Can they trust what’s building between them or will Silent Pines take everything?
