About the book

About Almost a Stranger: A Psychological Thriller Romance (The Final Chapter Book Club)

She left everything behind. Except the person who never let go. Once upon a time, I dreamed of being a romance writer. For a while, the dream came true. The books took off. Fan mail rolled in. Readers said my stories made them feel bold, desired, alive. I soaked up every word. Until the messages shifted. The sweet notes turned personal. Then intimate. Then obsessive. Emails arrived quoting details I’d never shared. My private number lit up with texts no one should have had. Photos of me appeared—on a jog, in my home, in the shower. Packages landed on my doorstep. Flowers. Jewelry. Dead animals. The police did nothing, even after my stalker tricked someone into attacking me and nearly got my little brother killed. To protect my family, I had only one choice. I ran. New name. New life. A quiet bookstore café on Whisper Island, where I pour lattes, recommend paperbacks, and pretend I’m just another small-town girl who’s never been hunted. I almost believe it. Until a woman collapses in my shop and died, poisoned from one of my mugs. Until the first new message arrives. Same tone. Same style. Same nightmare. He’s found me. And wants to pick up exactly where the terror left off. Mira Shaw delivers obsession, buried identity, and dangerous desire in Almost a Stranger – book two of the Final Chapter Book Club series, perfect for fans of Verity and The Housemaid.
