For a decade, Devils Lake has lingered in the shadows-now, for a limited time, the original version is returning to Wattpad before disappearing forever. Alison is desperate to escape the anxiety and despair that haunt her. When she meets a man who can silence her suffering with a touch, it feels like salvation. But as his influence over her mind grows, so does her doubt. Is he truly freeing her, or is she surrendering to something far darker? This special 10-year anniversary release is a rare chance to experience Devils Lake as it was first written-raw, unfiltered, and deeply personal. New chapters will be posted every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday until June 21, when the final three will be released together. On June 30, this version will be removed from Wattpad for good as I prepare to relaunch the novel with a refined vision, bringing it closer to its true literary and thematic intent.

Tessa Young is an 18 year old college student with a simple life, excellent grades, and a sweet boyfriend. She always has things planned out ahead of time, until she meets a rude boy named Hardin, with too many tattoos and piercings who shatters her plans.
