The Devil We Fear

By Kay Freeman

Hunted by his father. Haunted by their fears. Can they protect the family they love?

River Rogers thought she'd found safety for herself and her two children, but Cruz MacKenzie's past won't stay buried. As they try to rebuild their lives, the return of Cruz's serial killer father threatens to destroy everything. Haunted by childhood trauma, Cruz struggles to protect River and her children from the darkness he fears might consume them all.

With his father targeting River, Cruz is forced to confront the fear that he might be his father's son. As trust is tested and secrets unravel, River and Cruz must face the ultimate question: Can they escape their haunted pasts, or will the fear that binds them become their undoing?

Content Warning: This gothic suspense romance contains power exchange dynamics and light BDSM activities, and thus will not be for everyone. Both the hero and heroine are survivors of physical abuse. He's a victim of child abuse, and she's a domestic violence survivor. The hero's mother suffered from drug addiction, and his father's a psychopath. If you find any of this objectionable or triggering, stay clear. However, with all this said, the book is also healing and hopeful, and ends with a positive, loving relationship.
