With enemies circling and secrets closing in, she must confront the past before it buries her.
After years of struggle, Rio Salo finally holds the keys to the Painter's Bay Hotel, her family's legacy. With her renowned grandfather's culinary traditions and her own determination, she's ready to build a future. But trouble has checked in alongside her guests.
A shadowy gathering of men lingers in the hotel's halls-waiting. Watching. When one is stabbed in the night, Rio is thrust into a dangerous mystery. Is this connected to the half-brother she hoped was long dead? The thief. The arsonist. The man whose sins could ruin everything she's fought for.
As tensions rise, Rio finds herself caught between three men-Wash Ames, the steadfast timber boss willing to fight for her; Quinn Callahan, the enigmatic stranger hiding his own secrets; and Beckett, who arrives when she needs him most. But when one of them is murdered, Rio realizes she's not just fighting for her hotel. She's fighting for her life.
