Whispers in the Dark

<p>I didn't expect him to be there watching me with those piercing eyes that seemed to see right through me. I didn't expect him to unravel the secrets I've spent my life hiding behind a smile and some half-hearted laughs. But there he was drawing me into his world of shadows and whispers tempting me to step outside the lines I've always walked. James Blackwood is a mystery wrapped in darkness and I've always loved a good puzzle. But there's something different about him-something that warns me to keep my distance even as I'm drawn deeper into his orbit. What is he hiding? And why do I feel like I'm willing to risk everything to find out? Maybe it's the thrill of the unknown or maybe it's because for the first time in my life I feel like someone actually sees me. I've been hiding for so long that I'm not sure I know how to stop. But with James hiding isn't an option. And maybe just maybe I don't want it to be.</p>
