Summary

When the messages started, Kate felt a chill she couldn't explain. Anonymous threats. Cryptic notes. Someone out there was watching her — or so she thought. Each message pulled her deeper into fear and confusion. Her friends were being dragged into it, her life unraveling one text at a time. But the truth was far darker than she imagined. The person tormenting her wasn't a stranger hiding in the shadows…it was someone much closer. Now, Kate's telling her story — how she uncovered the horrifying secret that her stalker was the man she thought she loved.
