Flicker

They say secrets always come to light-well, I wish mine had stayed hidden. My husband's past was supposed to be just that-past-a closed book, a chapter I could lock away. But when a fireman with a history of his own walks into my life with accusations and a smirk, I realize my carefully built life is about to go up in smoke. Suddenly, the hushed rumors, hidden notes, and midnight visits from my past aren't just in my head-they're all coming back, dragging me into a mystery that everyone insists I have a stake in. As if balancing my job, raising Leo, and holding on to my sanity weren't enough, I now have Connor and a cold sheriff who's breathing down my neck, convinced I know more than I'm saying. I should walk away, let them sort it out, but there's just one problem: the more I dig, the more I realize they might be right. So here I am, torn between a puzzle I never wanted and the truth I can't avoid. Secrets? Fine. I've kept them my whole life. But they'd better be ready for the real question-how far I'm willing to go to uncover my husband's.
