About the Author

K.A. Mitchell discovered the magic of writing at an early age when she learned that a carefully

crayoned note of apology sent to the kitchen in a toy truck would earn her a reprieve from banishment to

her room. Her career as a spin control artist was cut short when her family moved to a two-story house, and

her trucks would not roll safely down the stairs. Around the same time, she decided that Chip and Ken

made a much cuter couple than Ken and Barbie and was perplexed when invitations to play Barbie dropped

off. An unnamed number of years later, she’s happy to find other readers and writers who like to play in her

world.

At seventeen, Trey was taken in by the wealthy Gardner family after his father was jailed for his mother’s murder. Until he left for the Army, he fought a double-edged battle—for proof of his father’s innocence and against his attraction to Daniel.

Fifteen years later, things haven’t changed. Trey is still looking for the real killer. And Daniel has never forgotten how Trey used to sneak into his room at night.

Now new clues to the murder are resurfacing—and so is Trey and Daniel’s sexual chemistry. Except this time, Trey has come to terms with his orientation.

But their connection may not be enough to overcome the mistakes of the past. Not while a murderer still walks free…
