The Reunion

Julia Benson swore she would never return to Newport Beach.

Not after the dysfunctional childhood she barely escaped. And certainly not after leaving behind the only person who had ever truly mattered to her, Sebastian Clark.

Now a rising journalist in New York, Julia is forced back to the wealthy coastal town she tried so hard to forget when the brutal murder of a glamorous socialite, Samantha Wallis, becomes the biggest story of her career. Reluctantly assigned to cover the case, Julia must also face the high school reunion she never wanted to attend, along with the memories, regrets, and people she left behind.

Making matters worse is Eddie Grant, an obnoxious gossip columnist assigned by her editor to follow her every move. But as Julia digs deeper into Samantha's murder, she uncovers far more than Newport's polished façade of wealth and privilege. Long-buried secrets begin to surface, exposing decades of lies, obsession, betrayal, and a darkness tied to a tragic disappearance from the past.

As the investigation spirals into a web of lust, revenge, and deadly deception, Julia finds herself drawn back to Sebastian-now the lead detective on the case and the man she never truly stopped loving. But the closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous the reunion becomes.

Some secrets refuse to stay buried.
Some loves never truly die.
And someone will kill to keep the past hidden.

The Reunion is a seductive romantic thriller filled with shocking twists, scandal, murder, and second chances that will keep readers turning pages late into the night.
