Synopsis

How do you trust a man with a violent past… especially when your body aches for his touch?
What happens when a brilliant coroner returns to her hometown and falls for the one man she should never want?

Welcome to Jack Creek, Georgia, a town where secrets rot beneath the surface, justice has a body count, and lust is laced with danger.

Disgraced former soldier Paschal Searcy came to Jack Creek to disappear, not to take over as acting sheriff after the sudden death of his former CO and friend. With whispers of murder, a growing body count, and rumours tying him to the Marchetti crime family, Paschal must navigate local politics, law enforcement loyalty, and one very persistent coroner who pushes every one of his buttons.

Dr. Rayne Devlin returned home to bury her mother, not to relive the trauma that forced her to leave in the first place. But when she steps into the role of Deputy Coroner, she’s thrust into a case involving murdered male sex workers, a town that won’t stop judging her, and a man who infuriates her just as much as he consumes her.

~She’s fire. He’s gasoline. And someone in Jack Creek wants them both silenced.

Love Was Never Meant to Happen in Jack Creek...

Paschal Searcy came here to disappear. Discharged from the Army under suspicion of murder, drowning in guilt, and clinging to the edges of survival. Now after the sudden death of his only ally, the sheriff who gave him a second chance, Paschal wears the badge himself. But Jack Creek isn’t a quiet southern town anymore. Not with a serial predator on the loose, dirty politics at play, and a woman who drives him to the edge of control.

Rayne Devlin never planned to return. Not to the pain. Not to the whispers. And definitely not to the man who makes her skin burn with anger… and something far more dangerous. But after her mother’s death and her mentor’s failing health, Rayne accepts the job of Coroner. She’s brilliant, guarded, and hell-bent on solving the string of murders no one wants to acknowledge. Even if it means colliding with the one man who challenges her in the morgue, in the field, and in ways that shatter her defences.

Their pasts are tainted. Their chemistry is volatile. And Jack Creek? It's bleeding secrets faster than they can bury the bodies.

Guilt will resurface.

Trauma will be exhumed.

And in a town built on silence, love might be the loudest and deadliest threat of all.

In this gritty enemies-to-lovers dark romance, nothing is safe.

Not their hearts.

Not their bodies.

And definitely not their lives!
