Hiding Maren

Five years ago, Maren Taylor fled to save her own life. Now she's living under a new name in a small town where no one asks questions. She keeps her head down, works long shifts at the local restaurant, and never lets her guard slip. It's the only way she's stayed safe.

She thought she'd finally escaped.

Callum Reed is only in town visiting a friend, but he can't ignore the tension Maren tries so hard to hide. She watches every exit, flinches when strangers get too close, and carries herself like she's waiting for danger to find her.

The more questions he asks, the harder Maren fights to keep her distance. Trusting the wrong person once nearly cost her everything, and she's not about to make that mistake again.

But someone from her past is getting closer. The quiet life she's built is beginning to unravel, and hiding is no longer enough.

This time, staying alive may mean trusting the one man determined to protect her.
