She left him at seventeen.
He's been waiting ever since.
Waverly Ashford returns to Coldmarsh to settle a house-nothing more.
A few weeks. No complications. No past.
But Coldmarsh has always had its own rules.
The fog still creeps in from the fields.
The woods still feel... wrong.
And the man she left behind-
hasn't aged a day.
Ezra Vane was never meant to be part of her life.
Not then. Not now. Not ever.
But the closer Waverly gets to the truth,
the clearer it becomes she didn't just leave a place behind.
She left something unfinished.
She came back to leave again.
This time... she might not be able to.
