Hey there! 👋
First off, welcome to The Watcher on the Ward! I'm so excited that you're here, ready to dive into this story that's been on my mind for a while (much like the cat in the above gif). This book is all about the complex ways love, trust, and obsession can collide in ways that aren't always black and white, and I wanted to explore those messy, intense dynamics in a way that feels real.
When I started writing, I put a lot of faith in Jason Hayes, our leading man, to be more than just the typical romantic hero. He's got layers, (yes, like an onion) and I hope you'll find him as compelling and complex as I do. He's right there in the middle of all the tension between Karla and Cameron, and trust me, things get pretty wild.
Oh, and let's talk about Karla for a minute. She's the heart of this story, and I really wanted to capture her strength—not just the kind that comes from being a doctor but the emotional resilience she shows while facing some pretty horrible things. What I love about Karla is that, despite everything, she doesn't lose her sense of self. She's going through an intense struggle, and I want you to feel that with her.
At the same time, I hope you can see yourself in her—the way she fights to stay grounded, even when things feel out of control. While what she's going through is tough and unsettling, I want you to root for her and relate to her journey. She's strong, but she's also vulnerable, and that balance is what makes her real.
I hope you enjoy the twists, turns, and emotional rollercoaster ahead! Feel free to drop a comment or message—I'd love to hear your thoughts as you get to know these characters. Thanks for clicking on this story and joining me on this journey!
Happy reading!
