Shay has learned how to disappear in plain sight. She moves through her days quietly-head down, emotions locked away, body trained to endure more than it should. Control is survival. Distance is safety. And no one ever looks close enough to see what she's learned to hide. Until someone does. Lilith Armstrong is everything Shay isn't allowed to want: composed, authoritative, untouchable. A woman who understands the body down to its smallest fracture-and sees far too much when she looks at Shay. What begins as instruction slowly becomes attention. What feels like guidance sharpens into something heavier, more dangerous, and impossible to ignore. Between the anatomy of the human body and the anatomy of restraint, lines blur. Power shifts. Desire festers in the quiet moments where it shouldn't exist. And Shay must decide whether being seen is worth the risk of being undone. Anatomy of Restraint is a dark, slow-burn psychological romance about control, obsession, and the intoxicating danger of crossing boundaries that were never meant to bend.

People called Alex a freak. Weirdo. Fake boy. Mute. Fag. So on and so on. Alex didn't deny it. She didn't entirely care in fact cause she knew she was different from the other kids. But it wasn't from being mute, having ASD, was intersex, or that her abusive, drunk father forces her to work in his mechanic shop for zero pay. No, it was the fact that she could make things happen without even meaning too. When upset, Alex can make lightbulbs explode. Hurt people accidentally by breaking their bones or sending them flying across the room without touching them. Make the ground beneath her tremble and so much more. Alex knew something was different with her, that she was indeed a freak. But not everyone thinks that.

When Sam Carter flies to Hawaii for her best friend's wedding, she expects sun, cocktails, and chaos. Not to fall for the bride's mother. Natalie Moreno is elegant, guarded, and far too tempting. What starts with a funny airport mix-up soon spirals into late-night confessions, family drama, and sparks neither of them can ignore. But attraction isn't the only thing stirring. Secrets from the past, unexpected connections, and questions long buried begin to surface, forcing Sam to navigate desire, trust, and truths that could change everything.

Rae lives suspended between two worlds. One is tangible-stone beneath her feet, voices she can touch, a life that asks her to be present. The other is made of dreams: vivid, aching visions that feel more real than waking, pulling her into places she doesn't fully understand and futures she's afraid to claim. She struggles to tell where one ends and the other begins. Haunted by doubt and shaped by years of emotional survival, Rae carries the quiet fear that she is always on the outside-watching, waiting, loving deeply but unsure if she is meant to belong. Her mind drifts when the world demands grounding. Her heart aches for something she cannot name, only feel. There are those who stand beside her-powerful, unwavering presences who anchor her when she begins to slip-but they remain at the edges of the story, felt more than explained. They are constants in her orbit, not the center of it. What matters most is Rae's internal battle: the tension between stepping fully into reality and retreating into dreams where certainty feels safer. As she is slowly asked to take up space, to be seen, to accept that she is wanted not for what she can endure but for who she is, Rae must confront the belief that she is not enough. That loving deeply makes her fragile. That choosing herself is dangerous. This is an intimate, character-driven story about dissociation and desire, about learning to stay present when it hurts, and about the courage it takes to believe that the life waiting for you-real, imperfect, and warm-is worth choosing over the dream you've been hiding in. *********************** *********************** ************ These are my characters!!!!!
