When a breakdown leaves Hollywood actor Mace Harlen stranded in a quiet Texas town, he expects a brief inconvenience-not a woman who unsettles him more than the life he's been running from.

Annie has survived by keeping her world small and her past buried. Letting anyone close is dangerous. Letting a famous stranger in could expose everything.

But Mace doesn't leave.

As he settles into town, the balance Annie depends on begins to crack. The man who has always guarded her secrets watches from the edges. A familiar face from Mace's past arrives, bringing temptation, history, and trouble in equal measure. And Annie is caught between what she's protected, what she wants, and what could destroy her.

In a town where everyone is hiding something, loyalty has a price. Faith is tested. Lines blur. And when the past collides with the present, Annie must choose who to trust-before the truth makes the choice for her.

There the Shade Ends is the first book in The Penumbra Series, a Texas-set romantic suspense featuring:

• a slow-burn, fade-to-black romance
• a dangerous web of secrets
• a love triangle that complicates everything
• small-town tension and buried truths
• themes of faith, redemption, and hard choices

Perfect for readers of Colleen Coble, Denise Hunter, and Nora Roberts' romantic suspense.
