Why we recommend it

With a possessive protector and an undercurrent of menace, it appeals to readers who like vulnerability paired with overwhelming devotion. The tone is tense and emotionally charged, building toward forbidden intensity. A moody first chapter for those who enjoy darkness wrapped around a tender, fraught connection.
