Shadows and surveillance set the tone for this stalker romance, where the line between watcher and protector dissolves into obsession. The hero's fixation is total, the dread atmospheric, and the heroine's pull toward danger impossible to resist. Expect tension that prickles, possessive devotion that suffocates, and the queasy thrill of being someone's entire world. For readers who like their darkness inescapable.
