In the prestigious halls of Hawthorne University, literature professor Evelyn Drake is renowned for her brilliance and her icy detachment. Graduate student Lila Voss is equally brilliant, fiercely ambitious and dangerously curious. When their worlds collide, attraction turns to obsession and desire to manipulation. Each is drawn to the other's darkness, testing the limits of passion, trust and control. By the time the lines between mentor and student vanish, both must confront the cost of their obsession before it consumes them completely.
Trigger Warnings: This story will contain themes of psychological manipulation, obsessive desire and intense power dynamics within a teacher-student relationship between consenting adults. It explores emotional and sexual tension, seduction, jealousy, morally ambiguous choices, insomnia and family pressures, gender-based expectations and it explores emotional/psychological abuse along with physical violence and substance misuse.
Readers should be aware of the depictions of emotional abuse, possessiveness, stalking-like behaviours and manipulative interpersonal dynamics. There are also elements of betrayal, emotional vulnerability and toxic obsession that may be triggering to some. Even though all the characters within this book are adults, the narrative examines the complexity and consequences of relationships entangled with control, desire and secrecy.
