Once upon a time their passion had been boundless.
Four years ago FBI Agent Loren Knox decided that Cole Desdune and all they’d shared together was simply too much for her. When, after chasing a soulless dream and living a nomadic life, she receives an invitation to Cole’s sister’s wedding, Loren wonders if this is a sign of a new beginning, or another colossal mistake waiting to happen.
Homicide Detective Cole Desdune’s job is to catch the bad guys and put them away. But when Loren Knox—his personal nemesis—returns to town, Cole cannot resist delving deep into the depths of the love he’d once savored. Only this time, their connection is much deeper. It’s hypnotic. It’s insatiable. It almost gets Loren killed and could land Cole on the wrong side of the law.
When Nathan Hamilton was accused of killing Landy Connor just weeks before their college graduation, he lost everything—his friends, his reputation, and the love of his life, Tenile Barnes. For ten long years, the murder has remained unsolved, nothing but false leads and dead ends. Desperate to bring Landy’s killer to justice and win back Tenile’s heart, Nathan starts his own investigation. But the first break in the case comes at a high price: Landy’s old roommate Nicole is kidnapped . . . possibly by the same person who killed Landy.
Nathan and his old friends comb through every memory, every photograph, and every trace of evidence for clues about who killed Landy then and who has taken Nicole now. As they separate fact from vicious rumor and piece together what really happened that night, they discover that the truth is darker and more twisted than they ever imagined. The killer is close, waiting in the shadows, ready to strike again.
In the shocking sequel to Rumors, will the friends finally reveal Landy’s killer . . . or will Nicole be the next to fall?
Her death tore them apart. Will solving her murder bring them back together?
Best friends Landy, Tenile, Nicole, Nathan, Justin, and Kareem were the golden children of Tanner University. Their paths were set: doctors, lawyers, business moguls, they were going to light the world on fire. Then, two weeks before graduation, Landy was murdered—and Nathan was blamed. Though he was never charged, vicious rumors drove him from town, and the circle of friends broke.
Ten years later, Nathan is back in Tanner, determined to clear his name. He’s asking questions no one wants answered, and soon rumors threaten to divide the community once more. Everyone in this small town is keeping big secrets—especially Landy’s old friends—and someone is willing to kill to keep their darkest deeds buried. . . .
This is the first book in a two-part series and a new edition of the previously self-published title Within The Shadows.
