Before I Fall

BEFORE I SAY I DO

What must a woman confront—about love, family, and herself—before she says “I do” again? Sarah Daniels had spent her life doing everything right—sacrificing her dreams, supporting her broken family, and planning a future with the man she trusted most. But one brutal betrayal shatters everything. With her engagement in ruins and her family’s loyalty in question, Sarah is done with love—and with hoping. When she accepts a job as a live-in caretaker for the daughter of a reclusive billionaire, she expects nothing more than a paycheck and a distraction. But Klaus Whitmore is not what she imagined. Cold, commanding, and devastatingly attractive, Klaus is a man who has built walls no one has dared to climb—not since his ex-wife destroyed his trust and walked out on their family. They make a deal: no emotions, no complications, no pasts. But Sarah isn’t just soothing his daughter’s nightmares—she’s waking something in Klaus he thought he’d buried. And Klaus, despite his guarded heart, is the only man who sees through Sarah’s perfect exterior to the storm she hides. As attraction turns to something far more dangerous, a familiar face from Sarah’s past returns with a secret tied to Klaus’s ex—and a scheme that could ruin them both. He swore he'd never love again. She swore she'd never fall for the wrong man twice. But in a house built on secrets and second chances… love may be the most dangerous risk of all.

THE FALL LINE

Derik Halvorsen was born brilliant—and broken. Raised in silence by a violent ex-military father in rural Montana, Derik never cried, never connected, never forgot. By sixteen, he could dismantle any system, crack any server, and understand evil better than any therapist who ever tried to study him. And then one night… he made his first move. When his father dies under mysterious—but eerily clean—circumstances, the police rule it an accident. Derik disappears. No leads. No trace. Just one new ghost in the system. But Derik didn’t run. He evolved. Armed with a list of names—abusers, traffickers, corrupt prosecutors—he begins executing brutal, calculated murders that look like suicides, accidents, or divine punishment. Every kill is a message. Every detail, a signature. He doesn’t murder for revenge. He murders for balance. As federal agents begin to catch on, whispers spread in the underworld—someone is out there correcting the justice system’s mistakes. A living algorithm. A myth. A nightmare. But Derik isn’t hiding anymore. He’s building something. And the deeper he goes, the more powerful enemies take notice—some who don’t want to stop him… and others who want to use him. Because sometimes, the only thing worse than a broken system is the man who learns how to perfectly destroy it. ⸻ Themes • Morality vs justice • Systemic failure • Psychological trauma • The mind of a killer • Cold logic vs emotional chaos
