### Premise:
When Nora Valdez wakes up battered at the edge of Greystone Falls with no memory of the last three days, the only thing she’s sure of is this: someone wants her dead. Determined to sell her late father’s remote ranch and get out of town, Nora instead finds herself trapped by a brutal storm, chilling threats, and the one man she never wanted to need again—her ex, Sheriff Colt Brennan. As Colt digs into the “accidental” death of Nora’s father and a string of land disputes, he uncovers a buried conspiracy over mineral rights that powerful people will kill to protect.
With the storm cutting them off, anonymous warning notes escalating, and a battle-scarred German Shepherd choosing Nora as his person, fragments of her missing memories surface—revealing that twelve years ago she secretly witnessed the murder of environmental inspector David Reyes. The killer? Influential land agent Vaughn Cartwright, who’s been tying off loose ends ever since. As Vaughn takes hostages and rigs explosives at the community center to erase every witness, Nora’s wilderness training and reclaimed courage become the town’s last hope. Side by side with Colt, she must confront her past, expose the truth, and fight for a future that just might include the ranch she planned to abandon, the dog who refuses to leave her side, and the lawman she never stopped loving.
