He was sent to debunk me. I accidentally fell in love with him instead.

I tried to stay hidden—half-human, half-alien freak with a talking fox and a talent for solving magical crimes.

Then Cade showed up.

Grumpy, skeptical, maddeningly hot Cade. A human cop sent to investigate a murder in my forest.

He doesn't believe in magic. He definitely doesn't believe in me.

Until we're forced to work together.

Until I save his life.

Until we kiss—once, recklessly—and I can't stop thinking about him after.

He sees the girl I hide from everyone. The one I've buried beneath secrets, shame, and a past that's trying to kill me.

I swore I'd never trust anyone with the truth.

But Cade doesn't run when he finds out who I really am. He stays.

And now?

Now he's in danger because of me.

Because the deeper we fall, the closer we get to uncovering a secret someone would kill to keep buried.

And I'm starting to think they already have.
