Alana has spent years running from a past that left her voiceless, invisible, and convinced she was unworthy of being chosen. Shetrying to rebuild her life piece by piece therapy, prayer, and the smallest steps toward trust. But when strange sightings, slipped secrets, and a familiar voice in the dark threaten to pull her back into danger, she's forced to confront the truth she's avoided: freedom requires being seen. And the one person she never expected to trust is the only one holding the line between her and the man hunting her.

Detective Franklin never meant to get attached. Assigned to protect Alana, he promised himself he'd stay professional focused on the case, not the woman who keeps unraveling every guarded part of him. But as the threats escalate, so do his feelings, pulling him into a fight he can't walk away from. With his own past resurfacing and betrayal closing in from inside the team, Franklin must decide how far he's willing to go to keep Alana safe and whether protecting her means revealing truths of his own.
