He spent seventeen years searching for the woman he lost. He never expected to find another one in the dark.

River Weston has spent nearly two decades chasing ghosts.

A tattoo artist with blood on his hands and vengeance in his veins, the brooding middle Weston brother has devoted his life to finding the girl who disappeared without a trace and uncovering the truth behind his parents’ murders. Love is a luxury he buried long ago.

Until he finds a mysterious woman caught in a trap deep in the Montana wilderness.

Bruised, terrified, and unable to remember who she is, Iris has escaped something unspeakable. The only thing she knows for certain is that powerful people are hunting her – and if they find her, she won’t survive.

River has every reason to walk away.

Instead, he hides her.

As Iris slowly pieces together the fragments of her shattered past, their undeniable attraction ignites into something neither of them can control. But every answer they uncover leads to darker secrets, deadlier enemies, and a conspiracy that reaches far beyond their small Montana town.

Because the truth about Iris could destroy everything.

And when the past finally comes for them both, River will have to decide how much blood he’s willing to spill to save the woman who’s taught him how to live again.
