She was a new woman. In a new place. With a man who loved her, darkness and all.

And she loved him. So much that, sometimes, the power of that love scared her.

She'd expected love to be beautiful. Kind. Good.

She knew now that it could be consuming. Terrifying.

But even in the midst of that terror, love could bring you safety. Hope.

Dane was her hope. Her future.

And she couldn't wait to see what more life would bring them.

She was Katie Black. She lived in Anywhere, U.S.A. She knew about killers. She knew about death.

And now, she knew about love.

Thanks to a detective who hadn't been interested in dying, but more interested in living, for her.
