Kierra Centerand was once vivacious and outgoing, that all
changed the night her stepfather killed her family in an explosion that
authorities wrote off as an accident. Now, ten years later Kierra has returned
to the small town of Briarview to find answers, confront her demons, and see if
she can finally move on with her life. Not much has changed, Briarview is still
the quaint, charming, small town Kierra left behind. Only now her high school
boyfriend is the sheriff, and her stepfather is somewhere in the town, hiding
in plain sight.
When Bryan Donaldson sees Kierra again for the first time he
is surprised, she’s no longer the fun blonde he remembers, but rather she’s
shy, prone to panic attacks, and hiding from the world. When Kierra’s
stepfather starts making threats, Bryan is determined to keep her safe in his
arms, and in his bed, for life.
EXCERPT
Kierra's chest suddenly felt too tight to take a breath. She desperately wanted to tell him to stop talking, to run away. She wished she had never come to town, and that she was anywhere but
here listening to Bryan's calm, soothing voice.
“I can also tell you the thing that's going to be the hardest to hear. The explosion was ruled an accident. It appears that they only did a cursory investigation, but there was no reason to suspect foul
play. It was ruled an accidental gas leak. Most importantly, in that investigation they didn't find a fourth body in the house. The onlyvictims of that explosion were your grandparents, and your mother.”
Somewhere in the distance a bird chirped and parents cheered at the Peewee football game. Kierra heard it all as though it were a million miles away. She couldn't breathe. She couldn't think. Her stepfather was alive somewhere.No one believed her ten years ago, no one was going to believe her now, but she knew for certain that somehow he was responsible for the explosion that killed her family.
And he was still out there somewhere.
Thanks for having me!
