Perfect neighbor

Muscular, attractive, and piercingly intelligent, Edward Hoppers is the neighborhood's newest mystery. The book club is abuzz over this perfect neighbor, but I refuse to join the hunt. I even refuse to meet his gaze.

Why? Because the man everyone is fantasizing about is the very one I desperately tried to erase from my life.

Edward is my first love, the only man who left a permanent mark on me and who destroyed me when he left. His return, silent and unsettling, is an earthquake.

Today, he lives right next door, and the proximity is torture. Between avoiding his eyes and the flood of memories, I fight to keep my distance and prevent history from repeating itself. My heart screams danger, but my senses betray me. He is back. But for what reason? And am I strong enough to resist the one who holds the key to all my secrets?
