Raptured Souls (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781965404027)

A he falls first, new to town romantic suspense from USA Today Bestselling Author Persephone Autumn

Love is the only thing I've given up on. Until I meet the broody, secret son of Stone Bay's biggest recluse.

Devastation consumed me when my first love took his last breath. But after years of healing, I found the courage to date again. To move forward.

But the glint of happiness I discovered quickly morphed into my biggest nightmare. One night was all it took to put my walls back up. One night made me doubt I'd ever love again.

Until Maddox Freeman drives into town.

Although our connection is instantaneous, I shield my heart. Maddox is a stranger, a client, a mystery. But somewhere deep down, he feels familiar, profound. Important. More. And somehow, I know Maddox feels it too.

Wanting to know the man behind the grumpy exterior, I offer to help him renovate the house he inherited in Stone Bay. And in the weeks that follow, I slowly let him in. I slowly open my heart again.

While sifting through boxes, I uncover something monumental. Stumble upon secrets that will change Stone Bay forever.

As Maddox and I fall harder, as I unearth more secrets about the town, as I recruit others to help me get the truth about Stone Bay out, the ghosts of the past resurface. Warn us to stop digging through the town's history. Put our lives in jeopardy-to scare us off, and make Maddox leave. But we refuse to cower.

And as the truth about Stone Bay and the Seven is exposed, Maddox and I fight to stay alive.

**Raptured Souls is a standalone story in the Stone Bay series, but for a more enjoyable reading experience, it is highly recommended that you read the previous books beforehand.
