She travels back in time to prove her true love is innocent. But what if he's not?

In 1973, 19-year-old Cassie returned to her home town in coastal Massachusetts after her first year away at college. The next day, her boyfriend, Julian, was implicated in a ruthless killing.

Seven years later, a freak occurrence gives Cassie a unique time-traveling ability, allowing her mind to go back and occupy her younger self. She can use this power to relive that crucial time with the knowledge of what is about to happen.

Cassie has never gotten over her feelings for Julian. Since the day she refused to provide him with an alibi for the time of the murder, she has been filled with recrimination. As terrifying as it will be, nothing can stop her from seeking the truth. Could it really have been Julian who lured the beautiful victim to a lonely spot and brutally killed her?

It takes all her courage to conceal herself at the scene of the crime before the murder takes place, putting her own life at risk when she inadvertently reveals herself to the killer.

Back in the present, she finds she has awakened a monster who thought their grisly secret would be safe forever. Without evidence of what she witnessed, how will she prove who did it before becoming the next victim?

Full of mystery, danger, and heart, each book in the Before Series is about grabbing at second chances to make things right, even when the risk of failure may be death.

Sometimes it's better to let sleeping villains lie.
