A spine-tingling tale of love, betrayal and deadly small-town secrets….
VIOLET BAKER: beautiful, troubled…traumatized by her childhood friend’s murder
Haunted by ghosts from her past, Violet’s quest for answers, coupled with psychic visions of a serial killer and his victims, quickly puts her in danger.
Then the killer targets her as his next victim….
Although she is terrified of her growing desire for Grady Monroe, she is forced to turn to him for protection. But he is the one man who knows her terrible secret—that she is to blame for his sister’s death….
GRADY MONROE: sexy, vengeful, bitter…determined to solve his sister’s case
Plagued by guilt, this loner has never allowed a woman close. Then Violet Baker returns, stirring his passion with her sexy, vulnerable eyes, and heating his blood with lust. Her visions may lead him to the serial killer and his sister’s murderer, but he must guard his heart against falling in love….
THE BONE WHISTLER: twisted, ruthless…obsessive
This killer believes his ritualistic sacrifices are necessary for himself, the greater good…and for the glory of his Father.
Will his connection to Violet Baker lead her into his waiting hands, or will it lead to his own demise?
The answer is just A Breath Away….

Crow’s Landing, Tennessee
“HELP ME….” Darlene’s whispery plea echoed inside eight-year-old Violet Baker’s head. “Please…s-somebody…help me.”
Violet wrapped her arms around her teddy bear, Bobo, rocking back and forth on her bed. Even though the thunderstorm raged outside, she’d heard Darlene’s terrified cries in her head all night. Poor Darlene hated storms.
A tree branch scraped the window, and lightning zigzagged across the black sky. Violet rubbed her fingers over her half of the Best Friends necklace Darlene had given her. Violet had a strange connection with Darlene. They’d had it since they were little. Probably because they were both motherless. Nobody in Crow’s Landing knew about their connection, though. It had been their little secret.
