Elena lives in silence, bound by routine, afraid of love and the wounds of her past. But everything shatters the night Damian walks into her life. Dark, dangerous, and utterly obsessed with her, Damian is both the storm she fears and the shelter she secretly craves. He doesn't just want her-he claims her, body and soul, unraveling the walls she has spent years building. Drawn into his world of grit, violence, and passion, Elena fights the pull of a man who sees her more clearly than she sees herself. But as obsession turns into desire, and desire fuses into love, she must decide: will she keep running from the fire-or surrender to the only man who has ever truly claimed her heart? A modern, gritty, and sensual dark romance of obsession, survival, and forever love. For fans of intense chemistry, protective antiheroes, and happily-ever-afters forged in shadows.
