Behind the Mask by Harper Ray

For five years, I’ve stayed away. I’ve hidden myself away like I was asked, abided by the threats that came my way and kept my mouth shut.
I’m done hiding.
Returning to my childhood town after so long wasn’t an easy decision but I needed to move on from the past, take my life by the horns and make it my own again; scars and all. Yet, moving on isn’t so easy when the man who stole your heart as a child turns up at your parents’ house and with a shiny, new fiance hanging on his arm.
Between balancing the skeletons stashed away in my closet and my forbidden feelings that still lingered for Axel, I was sure my life couldn’t possibly get any more overwhelming.
That was, until the threats began to pour in again and this time with a very deadly promise attached.
