When a grumpy SEAL meets a beautiful recluse with a tragic past, hearts unite amidst hidden danger…
When Navy SEAL—CASPER—Caspian Taylor returns to Harland County, he's ready for some much-needed downtime. But rest isn't on the horizon when he meets the sarcastic and reclusive Harper Quinn, cousin to his brother's girlfriend. Harper has just moved to town to escape a past that haunts her, diving into her passion for restoring furniture to find some semblance of peace. But her new beginning is disrupted by a series of unwanted 'gifts' left on her doorstep and in her workshop.
Harper Quinn never expected that restoring her great-grandmother's desk would lead to uncovering a hidden diary, much less one that echoes her own traumatic past. As she reads the haunting entries, she finds herself pulled into a web of secrets that refuse to stay buried. When strange and disturbing notes start appearing, Harper's resilience is tested. Initially hesitant to involve Cas, she soon realizes she can't face this alone. As they work together to uncover the truth, Harper must confront her past and her fear of depending on others, all while navigating the undeniable attraction she feels toward Cas—a man who might just be the key to her healing.
With their bond strengthening, they face the shadows of Harper's past and the dangers lurking in the present.
