Two brilliant minds. A shared, haunting past. A dangerous truth that needs to be uncovered, but at what cost?
Psychologist Leedra Henderson isn't just accepting a new job at the Anchored Empowerment Center-she's returning to the shadows of her childhood. Beneath her calm professionalism lies a deep need to uncover the truth behind the mysterious deaths at her former foster home, including the sister she barely got to know. Independent, guarded, and relentless, she's prepared to get the answers she's owed... alone.
But fate has other plans.
Dr. Dexter Parker, a respected MD and survivor of the same foster care system, isn't seeking closure so much as he's seeking to help Leedra obtain the missing pieces of her life. His failed marriage taught him to guard his heart, but when Leedra walks back into his life, the spark between them reignites. He may hold the pieces of the puzzle she's trying to solve-but getting too close could put them both in the crosshairs of a killer who's gone undetected for far too long.
As the investigation heats up, so do their feelings. But when they start getting too close, they'll have to decide: is justice worth the risk... or is a second chance at love too dangerous to pursue?
