    "Okay." She sat back down, as if that made it all seem perfectly reasonable and she'd wait right there, pleasantly even, until he was sure he had nothing to fear from her. "Would you like to tell me what you did?"
    "No." He laughed in spite of himself. "But I'm not a criminal, Grace. The cops aren't looking for me. And I'm not some guy your brother freed from death row and is hiding here until the media circus dies down."
    "Zach told you about all that? Because he never actually told me that. I mean, people in the family suspected at times, but....
    "I'm not a criminal," he said again.
    "Okay."
    The dog whined and nudged his giant head against her, and she petted him, despite all the mud, happy as could be until she lifted her head and looked back at Aidan.
    No, she was staring at the blood that had soaked through his shirt.
    "This is ridiculous," she said. "I'm not that scared of you anymore, and I really don't think you're that scared of me, are you?"
    "No," he agreed.
    "So there must be some way we can work this out. You're wet. You're bleeding. You've got to be freezing because I'm not as wet as you are, and I'm really cold. Let's come up with a plan we can both live with."

It didn't matter what happened here—what Allie thought she saw—she was staying. If the house didn't hold the answers she sought, the townspeople likely did. This was the kind of place where people were born, lived out their whole lives, and died. She'd find people who knew her father, remembered her mother and her sister. She'd ask her questions, have her answers, no matter how painful.
    She was still standing there a moment later when the wind started screaming. Even though she was expecting it, she still gave a start when the thunder finally sounded and the lights flickered and died.
    She was just starting to calm down a little when she heard another sound. Someone was knocking on the door. Her heart gave another painful lurch, thinking of that eerie vision of herself and her mother in the kitchen. But the noise persisted, and Allie hurried to the front door.
    Without even looking to see who it was, she flung open the door, forgetting all about the candle in her hand. The wind came at her in a rush, the light dying abruptly. Lightning crashed around them, for a second providing dramatic backlighting for the man.

Teresa Hill lives in the shadows of the Blue Ridge Mountains with a patient, very understanding husband, an incredibly logical son and a highly creative daughter. Together, they share their home with two giant, lazy cats who walk across her laptop keyboard when they think she’s written enough for the day and two beautiful, lazy dogs, usually at her side or under her feet.
    Born in Central Kentucky, growing up in a town where the public library was housed in an old church, she came to believe books were sacred things and that being a writer would be the best profession in the world.
    A three-time Rita nominee and USA Today bestselling author, she has written thirty books of romance and women’s fiction, with more than 2 million copies in print, for NAL/Onyx, Silhouette, Harlequin and Steeple Hill.
