There’s only one way to clear his name. But he needs her help. Freed from prison after fifteen years, Beau Boudreau turns to Peyton LaCroix. Their love affair ended the night he was wrongly accused of murder. Now Beau needs the Black Bayou defense attorney to help clear his name. With the case—and reawakened passion—heating up, time is running out to find someone who has killed before. And is getting ready to kill again.

They come from two different worlds And hers includes a killer. When dashing Jackson Fortier stumbles—literally—into the bayou’s inner depths, he never expects to encounter a gorgeous woman in the swamp. Little does he know, Josephine Cadieux has an ulterior motive for getting to know infiltrating his world to find the man who brutally attacked her. But the more Josie tries to ignore her feelings for this stranger, the more determined he is to keep her safe…and out of the clutches of a serial killer.

A killer is stalking the swamps. Stopping him is their mission. Investigator Nick Cain doesn’t plan to stay in Black Bayou long. Just long enough to catch a serial killer. But his partner, Officer Sarah Beauregard, sees the case as an opportunity to prove herself. Uncovering town secrets as they investigate the murders of four women, they find their growing feelings for each other are an unwanted distraction. One they can’t afford when the killer targets Sarah.
