Profile of a Stranger

Mara Ellison is done being controlled. She has rebuilt her life, guarded her privacy, and learned to trust herself again.

Then she meets Nate Calloway online.

He seems safe. A paramedic with a rescue dog. Patient. Kind. Careful with her boundaries.

But Nate is a lie.

The real man in the photos is Cole Hartley, and he has never spoken to Mara in his life. Someone has taken his face, his voice, and the private details of his world to create a profile designed to be trusted.

When Mara and Cole are forced together by the investigation, the threat turns personal fast. The person behind Nate isn’t just stealing identities. He is studying people, using their wounds, and building traps out of what they most want to believe.

Now Mara has to decide whether to let shame silence her—or expose the stranger who turned trust into a weapon.

Profile of a Stranger is a gripping romantic suspense thriller about online deception, stolen identity, and the terrifying cost of believing the perfect lie.
