Gone Away — Elizabeth Noble (1)

Circles: Book Four

Mason Arquette isn't one for mincing words. In fact, he often rubs people the wrong way -- with the exception of Riece Burrell. Riece came with his own set of social issues, but he saw right through Mason's tough exterior, and they made a perfect couple. Or so Mason thought… until Riece abruptly ended their relationship without much explanation.

Years later, Mason and Riece are thrown back together. As a US Forestry Service photographer, Riece is sent on assignment to the Black Hills, where Mason works. When Mason is tasked with guiding Riece around the territory, old feelings are quickly rekindled.

But nothing is ever easy. Just as Mason and Riece begin to work things out, they're targeted by people with motives so vile and twisted they defy imagination. In a desperate race for their lives, they must depend on one another and take a big step out of their personal comfort zones to find their way back to safety -- and back to love.
