Part of Springbrook Hills
First published 2021
Luna Davidson has been in love with Tony since she was ten years old. He was her older brother's best friend, which put him firmly out of reach, and when she finally told him how she felt, he turned her down. She moved on. Or tried to. Now someone has been following her for months, leaving her shaken and afraid, and the last person she wants riding to her rescue is Tony. He finds out anyway. As a detective with the Springbrook Hills PD, Tony takes the stalking seriously from the moment he hears about it, and he is furious she kept it quiet so long. Working the case puts the two of them in close quarters, which is exactly the problem. Luna carries old wounds from that rejection and struggles to trust what she sees building between them now. Tony starts to wonder whether turning her down years ago was the worst mistake of his life. He needs to identify her stalker before the situation turns dangerous. She needs to decide whether she can open herself up again. Both questions are pressing, and only one of them has a clean answer.
