My Haunted Vow - Book Two
The Clark sisters thought they were safe, but their terrifying journey is only just getting started.
Violet Clark is attending college in New York at one of the most prestigious art schools in the nation. As the oldest child, she should be the one who has it all together, who can help her sisters cope with the loss of their parents, and who should be able to move on from the tragedy that tore her family apart.
But the past insists on haunting her.
When Violet starts to struggle in her dance classes and a mysterious bouquet of roses arrives on her doorstep, it grows even harder to let go of her fears. Constantly looking over her shoulder, it’s clear someone is watching her, and she can’t figure out who. Soon, she’s not the only one receiving creepy notes and photos. Her sisters are in danger, too, and there is only one man she trusts to calm her nerves and help her solve the mystery.
Detective Matiu McAllister is all too familiar with the Clark sisters. Working in Charleston, he was assigned to their case when Violet’s parents were killed. Not only did the suspect escape, but now they can’t find him, and Matiu is convinced that Violet, Genevieve, and Konnie are not out of danger yet. Battling his own ghosts and another case from his personal past, Matiu quickly realizes that he needs to solve both cases so he can lay those ghosts to rest.
Matiu and Violet have been communicating since that tragic night in Charleston. When circumstances send Matiu to New York, they can’t deny that there is a strong connection between them, and their attraction blossoms.
So does the danger.
Forced back to Charleston, Matiu leaves New York. But when Violet’s life is threatened, he is desperate, more than ever, to get back and save her. My Haunted Vow, the thrilling sequel to Haunted by You, will haunt you with every nerve-wracking turn of the page.
