Unsolved Crime Thriller Romance circa 2013
Ok so I am looking for this book I read on Kindle in 2013-2014. It might have been marketed as YA, but it was definitely not for children.
It was a crime thriller romance book focused on a woman who was on the run for potentially witnessing a crime? I remember something about her seeing a neighbor's garden and him burying something wrapped in a shower curtain, however, she also might have been the one who had the garden/buried something in it. I'm pretty sure she spent a lot of time tending to a garden since she didn't go into town often.
The MMC was a close neighbor, though they were in the mountains, so that's relative. He owned a dog and was either a federal agent or a cop. He frequently checked in on the FMC.
She gets attacked in her home at one point and severely choked out. I remember this because she was told to take a spoonful of honey every few hours (which is when I learned honey could be pretty useful).
I don't exactly remember the cover, but I think it was a view of the mountains. It might've had the standard "FMC/MMC standing close together" on it, but I am not certain.
I've tried looking for it every few years, but no longer have access to that Kindle account.
