And my own struggle to stand tall and be independent takes an unexpected hit. Then the vindictive Hamiltons try to use me as a weapon against my husband. Though Dean promised to stay away from Mirror Lake, nothing can stop him from rushing back to protect me with everything he has. But this time, I won’t let him.

She’ll be working in her family’s ice cream shack with her newly ex-boyfriend—whose kisses never made her feel desire, only discomfort—and her former best friend, King, who is back in their Canadian prairie town after disappearing three years ago without a word.

Everything I Left Unsaid by Molly O’Keefe

Everything I Left Unsaid by Molly O’Keefe

I didn’t think answering someone else’s phone would change my life. But the stranger with the low, deep voice on the other end of the line tempted me, awakened my body, set me on fire. He was looking for someone else. Instead, he found me. And I found a hot, secret world where I felt alive for the first time. His name was Dylan, and, strangely, he made me feel safe. Desired. Compelled. Every dark thing he asked me to do, I did. Without question. I longed to meet him, but we were both keeping secrets. And mine were dangerous. If I took the first step, if I got closer to Dylan—emotionally, physically—then I wouldn’t be hiding any… Read more.
