What this book is about
Tiernan de Haas has been raised by her socialite parents to be seen and not heard — and barely seen. When they die, she goes to live with her father's estranged brother Jakob and his two adult sons Kaleb and Noah in their remote Colorado mountain home. The isolation, the work, and the family's wildness dismantle everything she was. Credence is a dark standalone romance — taboo premise, explicit, and psychologically intense.
