About This Book
Two dead bodies, a past that's haunting the present, and a woman not afraid to dig for the truth.
Charlotte Warwick is happy focusing on the company she and her sister started and leaving men as little more than a distant afterthought. Her last boyfriend did a doozy on her and although she knows she'll recover, she's in no rush. Not even when the sexy Noah Streak—AKA Mantis—walks into her life. The president of the local motorcycle club is the last man she should get involved with.
Noah has other ideas. Charlotte is way out of his league, but he's never been a man afraid of a challenge. And when a summer outing leads to an opportunity to win her over, he's not above using it to his advantage. Even if that chance rests on the fact that they discovered not one, but two bodies and a 150-year-old mystery. Unorthodox, sure, but he'll take all the help he can get.
The past isn't content to stay in the past, though, and when it collides with a very recent crime, Charlotte and Noah find themselves caught in a tangle of greed, jealousy, and deceit. Turning to each other—trusting each other—may be the only way to survive.
Trigger warning
Like most, if not all, romantic suspense novels, mine contain elements of violence and often murder. In addition, as with this book, I include descriptions of events that happened in the past or "off page" that touch on topics such as domestic violence, violence against women, or violent homes. This book contains conversations between the characters who were victims of these particular traumas.
