Summary
"𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐲 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐨𝐫. 𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐭."
You came to Cotton Cove to disappear. After barely escaping an abusive ex, you needed a fresh start—a quiet town where no one asked questions and the past couldn’t reach you.
Then Simon Riley moves in with a little girl clinging to his side.
He’s your new tenant, nothing more. But you can’t ignore the way his daughter lights up your bakery like it’s the only warmth she’s ever known… or the way Simon looks at you when he thinks you aren’t watching.
What you don’t know is that Simon "Ghost" Riley is an undercover agent, and the little girl calling him "Dad" isn’t his by blood, but she’s his in every way that matters, because she’s Captain Price’s daughter, and her safety means everything. But the closer you get, the more dangerous it becomes—because Simon Riley is not here to stay. His time in Cotton Cove is borrowed, each day nothing more than a countdown to when he’ll have to leave.
And you'll be left to wonder if you ever really knew the man behind the mask… or if you were only ever meant to lose him.
