But when the murder quotient in Kendall County rises and all signs point to a mysterious group nearby who have been harassing Maggie's family, he can't leave her unprotected-especially when he realizes he's fallen hard for her. As tension mounts and the menace closes in, Josiah will do anything to prove to Maggie that their love is real . . . but can they stay alive long enough to share it?Contains mature themes.
