Amari has never had a problem keeping his distance. From people. From feelings. From anything that might get too close. But Nasir makes that impossible.

Book 7 The Brooks -Jalen, Avery, Malachi and their extended family-are back at The Arcane Academy, this time as young adult instructors.

In the quiet town of Blackwood, Massachusetts, magic isn't learned it's performed. Seventeen-year-old Cairo Bell comes from a long line of illusionists who don't just cast spells, but shape reality through attention, belief, and performance. To the world, he's a gifted stage magician. To his family, he's the next in a legacy older than most myths. And to something watching from beyond the veil... he's something much more dangerous.

"Everyone leaves me." "I'll leave first." "I don't deserve love." "But Someone stayed."

Eli Mercer knows the story of Adrian Cross and Lena Morales. Everyone does. The obsession. The stalking. The twisted love story people still whisper about years later. Eli never understood how anyone could mistake something so dangerous for love. Until the messages started. Anonymous texts that arrive at impossible hours. Expensive gifts left outside his apartment. A stranger who always seems to know where he is, and watches him like Eli already belongs to him. Damien Vale is dangerous, manipulative, and impossible to escape. The more Eli fights him, the deeper Damien pulls him into a world built on obsession, control, and secrets. And then Eli begins to wonder if Damien really wants to destroy him... Or if he wants something far more terrifying. To make Eli love him. Because obsession isn't always frightening. Sometimes, it feels exactly like love.
