He helped bury a body. Now the woman he loves may be the only thing keeping him from losing everything.


Kevin never expected Lianne to come back into his life.

For seven years, he had tried to forget the woman he could never quite stop wanting. Then she called him, and one night changed everything.

Julian Froste is dead.

Kevin knows where the body is. He knows what Lianne did to him. And worse, he helped her make the murder disappear.

Now every sound outside the apartment feels like the beginning of an investigation. Every police cruiser makes Kevin wonder if the secret is finally coming apart. He could confess. He could walk away. He could tell the truth and accept whatever comes next.

But Lianne gives him something he has wanted for seven years: affection, intimacy, excitement, and the feeling of finally being completely wanted.

The longer he stays, the harder it becomes to imagine leaving.

Because Lianne never has to threaten Kevin.

She only has to remind him what he would lose.

And as Kevin begins to understand the woman sleeping beside him, one terrifying question refuses to disappear:

Does Lianne love him—or does she simply love having him?
