The Retreat

By Liz Ussery

You can't heal in a place that's still hurting you.

Cassie Vale came to Kepos Retreat for one reason: to forget.

Surrounded by silence, stripped of her phone, and promised radical trauma therapy, she expects discomfort-but not surveillance. Not secrets. And certainly not Jude.

He's quiet. Controlled. Off-limits. And the only person who seems to understand the storm inside her.

But something isn't right. The retreat is too curated. The staff too practiced. And Jude... knows more than he should.

As Cassie is pushed deeper into the program, she starts to question everything:

The nature of her memories. The lines between treatment and control.

And whether the man she's falling for is her most significant threat-or her only way out.

Tense, seductive, and razor-sharp, The Retreat is a psychological thriller about obsession, control, and the kind of desire that unravels everything it touches.
