Bree Thompson came to Ocean City, Maryland, to start over-but even in a town full of people, someone is watching her.
After a devastating loss, she trades her old life for a bustling coastal escape and a worn-down fixer-upper-something she can rebuild from the ground up.
A house. A career. Maybe even her heart.
Especially when she meets him.
Quiet. Closed off. He's moody-yet always there when she needs him.
Maybe too often.
He doesn't talk much. He doesn't smile easily. And he never explains why he's always nearby.
At first, it feels like a coincidence. Until it doesn't.
It starts small-things she can't quite explain. Then it becomes impossible to ignore.
Nothing stays where she left it. Nowhere feels secure. Because this isn't random.
It's deliberate.
And the man Bree thought she could trust?
He might be the one hiding in plain sight.
