Dr. Lillian Marquez knows silence well the sterile quiet of the lab, the weight of truths buried in evidence. But when she’s tasked with reopening a decades-old murder, the silence shifts into something darker. Files are missing, evidence is compromised, and shadows from the past refuse to stay hidden.
Her new partner, Detective Riley Quinn, is no easier to read. Relentless, sharp-eyed, and deliberately closed off, Riley unsettles Lillian in ways she can’t ignore. Tension hums beneath their clipped conversations, tangled with the drive to uncover what others have worked hard to erase.
As the case unfolds, the danger sharpens. Every lead edges them closer to the truth and closer to each other. But Riley has secrets too, the kind that could fracture both the investigation and the fragile trust growing between them.
Caught between justice and loyalty, Lillian must decide what she’s willing to risk her career, her heart, maybe even her life.
When the past finally comes due, can love hold against the weight of buried lies?

This story is one chapter in the Her Dark Secrets series, where every book delivers a heart-pounding mystery wrapped in irresistible romance.
In Her Dark Secrets, danger and desire collide in stories of women who refuse to look away. Each book stands alone, weaving mystery, risk, and forbidden attraction into settings where secrets linger and trust comes at a price. From quiet towns hiding old crimes to institutions built on lies, every heroine must face the shadows around her while reckoning with the pull she can’t ignore.
Suspense drives every turn. Romance shapes every choice. These are stories where secrets cut deep, passion burns sharp, and love just might be the most dangerous gamble.
