Justice brought her to Calusa Cove. Love might make her stay.

Firefighter Hayes Bennett has spent years keeping people at a distance. Casual flings, close calls, and buried emotions are just part of the job—and the only way he knows how to protect himself. Especially from someone like Chloe Fraiser.

FBI Agent Chloe Frasier has always played by her own rules. Her connection with Hayes has been strictly physical, built on adrenaline and unspoken boundaries. But when a brutal murder pulls her back to Calusa Cove, everything changes. The killer's signature is unmistakable—and horrifyingly familiar. Chloe's worst fear is confirmed: the man who murdered her twin sister has resurfaced. And this time, he's hunting closer than ever.

As Hayes and Chloe dive into the twisted heart of the Everglades, desire blurs into something deeper—and far more dangerous. The killer is watching, waiting, and always one step ahead. To survive, they'll have to let go of their past and trust what's been building between them all along.

Because when the swamp becomes a hunting ground, love might be their only way out alive.
