Some secrets drown in the dark. The deadliest ones rise with the flood.
Archivist Mara Ellis returned to Mason Creek for one reason: to catalogue the county's flood-damaged courthouse records before demolition and finally put her brother's twenty-year-old death to rest. But when she unearths a sealed flood map and a missing incident log, she realizes the tragedy was no accident of nature. It was an engineered catastrophe.
The only person she trusts with the truth is Luke Hartley-the town's brooding rescue captain who broke her heart the night her brother died. Luke is steady under pressure, fiercely protective, and carrying a dangerous silence of his own. When veiled warnings turn into lethal sabotage, Luke moves between Mara and the powerful families desperate to keep their crimes submerged.
Trapped between an oncoming storm, a corrupt town, and an undeniable slow-burn desire, Mara must unravel the conspiracy before the river claims its next victim. In Mason Creek, digging up the truth doesn't bring peace-it costs lives.
A twisty, can't-put-down romantic suspense perfect for fans of Nora Roberts, Laura Griffin, and Melinda Leigh.
