One year ago…
My family is gone. My parents. My twin sister. All of them murdered by the man who has stalked me for years. He nearly killed me, too. But I got away and he’s still out there, searching for me. He won’t find me. At least, I hope not. Thanks to WITSEC, I’ve been given a new life with a new identity.
The present…
My uncle, my only living relative, has helped me glue myself back together and given me the tools I’ll need to survive. I’m not fixed and my grief is heavy, but I’m at a point where I can put one foot in front of the other to try to move on.
I know my future will be hard and lonely. I must stay strong and focus on the good. I’m getting a second chance at life. I am safe. My new home is beautiful. The four brothers who live next door are even more so. Little do I know that Colt, Creed, Keelan, and Knox will soon become my everything. It’s as if my lonely heart screamed out for someone good to find me. Four answered back.***WARNING This is a reverse harem romance. Contains violence, graphic killing, foul language, and sexual content. Some parts may be triggering. Find Me is book 1 out of 4 in the series***

Rating & review
My review
I couldn’t put this down.
Find Me kicks off the series by introducing Shiloh, the Stone brothers, and the shadow of the stalker who’s destroyed her life.
We get flashbacks that feel like actual horror movies—there’s no watered-down version of what it means to be hunted. Shiloh’s trauma is handled in a way that makes the slow burn completely believable.
Shiloh (18) is a heroine I genuinely enjoyed: strong but broken, traumatized but determined, nerdy yet cool. She’s full of contrasts, which makes her feel real.
“I let him pull me to him, with a tiny bit of resistance to save face.”
She also adds some humor to the story!
“What in the H…E…double hockey sticks was that?”
The Stone Brothers have enough variety that you’ll probably crush on at least one:
• Knox (25): the stoic protector
• Keelan (23): tattooed “pretty boy,” seducer, calls Shiloh “baby girl”
• Colt (17–18): the dependable, caring “good” twin
• Creed (17–18): the rebellious, fun “bad” twinSuper slow burn, so slow it continues in the second book. But totally worth it.
And yes—cliffhanger.
