In The Chilling Darkness, Only Love Will Survive

Elsie Sweet loves nothing more than to uplift others, especially the women of her small, southern town. From her beloved secondhand shop to the hours spent volunteering at Safe Haven Women’s Shelter. But most importantly, she’s devoted herself to helping her roommate, and best friend, raise her adorable little boy.

When her roommate doesn’t return home one night, Elsie seeks help from the man who’s lived rent free in her head for months. The handsome investigator who pulls her into his orbit with every smile but doesn’t seem to know she’s alive.

After returning to his hometown broken hearted, Dean Kingston enjoys his new job as a private investigator where he buries himself in work. Not always an easy feat when the sexy Elsie Sweet keeps showing up, tempting him from his no romance rule.

He keeps his distance until Elsie’s panicked call for help has him running to her side. Dean agrees to help Elsie find her roommate, making his feelings impossible to ignore.

Elsie relies on Dean’s strong presence—falling even harder for her handsome protector—as they uncover a crime that runs deep in their community. Together, they must race against the clock before a boy’s mother never makes it home.
