Summary
Valerie Swan knew she never belonged in the city. She only stayed in Seattle because of her job as Detective with SPD.
When her niece Bella moves in with her older brother Charlie and a new Detective role opens up with Forks Police Department, she can't turn down the opportunity.
There's been a string of animal attacks, and with a population as close-knit as Forks, everyone is rattled. Val is determined to help her brother, Chief Swan, solve the case.
When Bella nearly gets crushed by a car in her high school parking lot, she and Charlie rush from work to Forks Community Hospital.
And that's when she meets him. Carlisle Cullen. The lead physician tending to her niece.
There's something about him. Something irresistibly charming. It's a magnetic pull she can't shake. He's impossibly handsome and alluring in a way that unnerves her.
And he can't seem to take his eyes off of her either. Not in a way that makes her feel seen, but in a way that makes her feel like prey. It's not a soft gaze he offers her. It's dark and hungry.
Valerie quickly learns there is something brewing in the small town, begging to be unraveled.
