Why we recommend it

Deception threads through this stalker romance, where nothing the hero shows the world is quite the truth. A double-dealing, watchful man fixes on one woman, his motives as tangled as his desire. Readers who enjoy a morally grey love interest, secrets stacked on secrets, and the creeping dread of not knowing who to trust will find plenty of shadow to get lost in here.
