My name is Lauren Hayes and I'm a detective with the NYPD. For ten years, I've been sleepwalking through life, after being the victim of a violent attack, but the day I met Anthony Colston, I finally started to wake up. There were instant fireworks between us, and even though I resisted forging a serious relationship with him, I couldn't stop myself, and he's made my life so much better.But it hasn't been an easy road. He's a detective, too, and he's working the case of a serial rapist and murderer, and after several crime scenes with no evidence left behind, he finally got lucky and managed to snag some of the killer's DNA. It matched to an old crime in the system, a rape kit done ten years ago.Mine.With my horrible secret thrust into the spotlight, I struggle to come to terms with not only what happened to me but also how to move forward with the man who loves me. As the case unfolds, Colston learns why the killer keeps choosing brunettes. It's because he's reliving the attack on me. I'm the only one he left alive, and he wants to remedy that mistake. Colston and his partner, along with the help of my friend Special Agent Jennifer Blackstone, zealously pursue the killer in an effort to find him before he finds me. They know he wants to finish what he started a decade ago. But for me, healing emotionally and physically is only part of the process. I want payback, too. So I won't mind if he finds me first. Because this time I'll be ready for him.
