Kierra Centerand was once vivacious
and outgoing, that all changed the night her stepfather killed her family in an
explosion that authorities wrote off as an accident. Now, ten years later
Kierra has returned to the small town of Briarview to find answers, confront
her demons, and see if she can finally move on with her life. Not much has
changed, Briarview is still the quaint, charming, small town Kierra left
behind. Only now her high school boyfriend is the sheriff, and her stepfather
is somewhere in the town, hiding in plain sight.
When Bryan Donaldson sees Kierra again
for the first time he is surprised, she’s no longer the fun blonde he
remembers, but rather she’s shy, prone to panic attacks, and hiding from the
world. When Kierra’s stepfather starts making threats, Bryan is determined to
keep her safe in his arms, and in his bed, for life.
Excerpt:
Kierra's chest suddenly felt too tight to take a breath. She
desperately wanted to tell him to stop talking, to run away. She
wished she had never come to town, and that she was anywhere but
here listening to Bryan's calm, soothing voice.
“I can also tell you the thing that's going to be the hardest to
hear. The explosion was ruled an accident. It appears that they
only
did a cursory investigation, but there was no reason to suspect
foul
play. It was ruled an accidental gas leak. Most importantly, in
that
investigation they didn't find a fourth body in the house. The
only
victims of that explosion were your grandparents, and your
mother.”
Somewhere in the distance a bird chirped and parents cheered
at the Peewee football game. Kierra heard it all as though it
were a
million miles away. She couldn't breathe. She couldn't think.
Her stepfather was alive somewhere.
No one believed her ten years ago, no one was going to
believe her now, but she knew for certain that somehow he was
responsible for the explosion that killed her family.
And he was still out there somewhere.

Bio:
As a child Angela remembers her mother telling friends
that Angela would read anything she could get her hands on, even the
back of the cereal box. That changed when she discovered romance novels as a
teenager, secretly reading her mother’s entire collection of Kathleen E.
Woodiwiss and being amazed at how captivating the stories were. She knew
that writing romance novels was what she wanted to do for a living.
She has recently published her first novel, Hiding
in Plain Sight, and begun writing the second book in the series. She is
also a member of Romance Writers of America (RWA) as well as her local chapter
and she enjoys being active in both.
Angela lives in Southern Illinois where she is living
her own happily ever after with her husband of over 20 years, their two
children, a very spoiled white german shepherd and two equally spoiled cats.
When she’s not writing she loves reading, cooking, and photography.
