BOOK 1 in the Drowning/Bully Standalone Series. WARNING: This book contains intense bullying, explicit scenes, triggering language, violence, and psychological content. I told Caden to cancel his stupid party. He told me, with that infuriating smirk, "Why? Planning to be my snack tonight?" Caden has made my life hell for four years, ever since our parents got married. He's gorgeous, arrogant, and the kind of boy Stanford girls trip over themselves for. Me? I'm the only one who sees right through him. He's a blatant bully, the devil who turned me into a surreptitious one. And now we're stuck sharing the same off-campus apartment for our entire freshman year. Living together means new rules, no boundaries... and a tension I never expected. The closer we get, the harder it becomes to remember why we ever hated each other in the first place- and nothing threatens our pride more than that. *** Step into an adventure of passion, forgiveness, and second chances. This is Caden and Madison's story.

"Every step you take away from me only drives you closer to the brink of my madness. You belong to me, Winter. Any alternative reality or illusion you hope for- I will destroy them until your very existence is entwined with mine." -𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 Eighteen-year-old Winter has always been a quiet shadow, a shy spy avoiding the perils of the spotlight. But when she's tasked with stalking five powerful Heirs, her carefully crafted invisibility shatters. Her mission is clear: erase their scandals, track their every move, and never draw attention. Yet, when she crosses paths with Ivan Arcane-the ruthless heir to one of the world's most powerful empires-everything changes. At first, Ivan saw her as dull and dependent, an insignificant watcher in the crowd. A beautiful doll to be kept locked and safe somewhere- an innocence belonging nowhere near him or his world. But when she makes one fatal mistake, he uncovers the sharp, wild mind she's concealed beneath fragile masks of pink and purples. Now, Ivan is obsessed, determined to dismantle her defenses and claim her as his own. And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.

Now she's back-bruised, guarded, and desperate to protect the only person who matters: her daughter, Isabelle who hasn't spoken a word in a year. Cali wants safety. She wants a fresh start. She definitely does not want to see Kane McKnight again-the man she loved, the man who shattered her, the man who can never know the truth. But fate has other plans. When Cali shows up at her brother Dex's penthouse, she doesn't expect to run into Kane there. Kane. Who is Older. Warmer. Still devastating handsome. And suddenly staring at her like she's a ghost he's been haunted by for years. Kane never forgot her. Not the way she looked at him. Not the tears he caused. Not the words he wished he could take back. Not the disappearance he's blamed himself for ever since. But the little girl napping in Dex's spare room changes everything. The art on the fridge. The toys scattered around the kitchen. The familiar shade in the child's eyes. Cali is hiding something. Kane can feel it in his bones. And the truth is about to break both of them. A story of second chances, healing from trauma, found family, buried secrets, and a love that refuses to die no matter how hard they try to kill it. ONLY EVER YOU Some stories begin with heartbreak. Some begin with lies. But theirs? It never really ended at all.
