I Just Saw Her

Patrick Ryan woke up one morning to a nightmare.  The beautiful Casey Rose is missing, her parents murdered, and her tight-knitted group of friends are left reeling. Months of being watched by a stranger had plagued her, forcing her to hide in plain sight, never sure of how serious to take the threat. But when she's gone, the secrets her friends kept for her explode, casting them under suspicion and into a spiral of doubt. Patrick makes a pact with himself to protect her at all costs, no matter what, if only she comes back. He promises that he will love her the way he's always wanted to, if only he sees her again. And just as suddenly, the nightmare ends. But sometimes, nightmares don't really end.
