Mallory Bennet has spent years building a quiet life from the wreckage of her childhood. No chaos. No attention. No reminders of the dead body she buried long ago.

But the past can be a bitch.

After her sister is murdered, Mallory’s carefully controlled world implodes. She not only has custody of her nephew, but a newfound stalker and the world’s biggest crush on Jude James, an infuriatingly charming doctor with a hero complex the size of a small country. Did we mention he’s also her best friends brother?

One accidental marriage later and Mallory is suddenly trapped in a whirlwind of instant parenthood, family chaos and with a man who kisses like he’s trying to set a house on fire.

The deeper Mallory is pulled into Jude’s life, the harder it becomes to keep her secrets hidden.

Because someone is hunting Mallory. Someone knows what she did.

And if they want to destroy the only family she’s ever had, they’re about to learn a very dangerous lesson: Mallory Bennett knows how to dispose of a body.
