Shadows Between Us (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798258235626)

Ava Carlton thought she had it all, a thriving business, a doting father, a sister who was her rock, and a nephew whose cuteness could melt steel. But just as she was ready to toast to her perfectly curated life, the universe threw a wrench into her plans. Her sister vanished without a trace, only to be found dead in the most shocking twist of fate. Suddenly, Ava is thrust into an unexpected role: guardian of her adorable nephew and relentless seeker of the truth behind her sister's murder.

Enter Warrick Romano, the enigmatic detective with a gaze that could cut through the thickest of fogs. He's swapped the frenetic streets of New York City for the deceptively calm embrace of a small Florida town, where crime was supposed to be a whisper of the past. That is, until two women turn up dead in a matter of weeks, sending shockwaves through the community and inviting the FBI into the fray. As whispers of a serial killer seep through the cracks, Warrick is pulled deeper into a web of secrets and danger.

When he crosses paths with Ava, the sister of one of the victims, he finds himself inexplicably drawn to her fierce spirit and undeniable charm. But as the stakes rise and Ava becomes a target herself, Warrick knows he must step in to protect her and her nephew. The problem? Keeping his emotions at bay while ensuring her safety feels like trying to bottle lightning. Can he solve the mystery, keep her safe, and resist the magnetic pull between them, or will the shadows of their pasts consume them both? The clock is ticking, and the truth is more elusive than he ever imagined.
