His Lovely Obsession

The last time I saw Cade Brennan he was on my mother's roof with a hammer and I was three weeks pregnant with his son. I drove out of Saltrock at two in the morning. He never called. He never had to. Six years later I come back to sell the house and it is spotless. The walk is shoveled. The taxes are paid. There is a folder in the kitchen drawer that I open too late. His handwriting is on the label. It has my son's name on it. The door is unlocked. He's in the driveway. A dark stalker secret-baby romance with an obsessive hero who never once left town, and a heroine who finally does the math.
