About
The man who broke her is back. And this time, he wants custody.
For years, Keira has built a quiet world around her son Daniel. Gentle routines. Predictable days. A sanctuary carved from love and necessity. She's done it all alone-because she had to. Because she couldn't trust anyone else.
But now the man who abandoned them is back. Not to make amends. Not to apologize. He wants a place in Daniel's life. And the court might let him.
Keira knows this isn't about fatherhood. It's about power. Control. Possession. The kind that stole her voice years ago-and nearly broke her.
Now, as Daniel begins to sense the change, Keira can feel their peace unraveling. One hearing at a time. One threat at a time. And if she loses this fight, she doesn't just lose her son.
She loses the only life that's ever felt like home.
A raw and emotional psychological thriller about maternal instinct, buried trauma, and what happens when your past comes to claim your future. Book six in the emotionally gripping When Bad Things Happen series.
