Moving back to Bellridge was supposed to be a retreat-a way to escape the dizzying blur of the city. But my first night back brought something I hadn't planned on: Nathaniel Caldwell. Old wounds, they say, heal with time, but it turns out, some scars never really fade. Now, years after our story came to a messy, abrupt end, Nathaniel wants something from me-and, to my own surprise, I actually want to give it. Except this time, it's different. There's no pretense of romance, no promises of a future. Just a mystery, a haunting note from my estranged father, and a midnight meeting that leaves me with more questions than I care to ask. He says he's here to protect me, but part of me wonders if I'm walking into a game I don't understand. Can you forgive someone who's more stranger than friend? Or am I finally ready to confront the history we've both run from? Bellridge is full of secrets, and this time, I'm diving in headfirst. But how far will I go before the past pulls me under for good?
