The Reader

Love will either save or destroy her.
Eighteen-year-old Ann Baker wakes on a deserted Pacific Northwest beach, her memory gone and a gunshot wound burning in her arm. When two strangers insist they’re her friends, she doesn’t know if she can trust them. But with gunfire closing in, Ann has no choice but to run. They take her to a hidden mountain compound, home to a mysterious community of mind-readers who think Ann might be The Lost One—their most powerful hope for survival.
But not everyone welcomes her. Jealousy and betrayal bubble beneath the surface, turning whispers into deadly plots. As murder and chaos rip through the community, Ann must confront an impossible truth: Is she their savior, their prisoner, or something far more dangerous?
Caught in a web of lies and love, Ann races to uncover the secrets of her past before her enemies catch up. The fate of the mind-readers—and all of humanity—rests on her shoulders. But saving them may demand the ultimate sacrifice.
This electrifying paranormal romance will grip you with its twists, high stakes, and an unforgettable battle for survival.
