Isabelle was raised to fear sin. She never expected to crave it. After a violent raid leaves her with nothing but a child and a past that could get her killed, she disappears into a lawless town and becomes someone else. Lilith Hale. But lies don't survive women like Josephine, a cold-eyed cowgirl who sees too much, gets too close, and doesn't believe in forgiveness. Isabelle should fear her. Instead, she can't stay away. What grows between them is wrong in every way Isabelle was raised to believe-and impossible to resist. Because the closer she gets, the more her faith begins to fracture... into something darker, something consuming. Something that feels like truth. And some sins don't ask to be forgiven. They demand to be chosen. ____ This is set in 1849 California. (It's WLW)

When Priscilla walks into Sloane's office, she's just another patient-guarded, broken, slow to trust. Sloane, a dominant and calculating therapist, is used to control. She knows how to push, how to read people, how to get what she wants. But Priscilla is different. What begins as therapy twists into something deeper-an electric pull neither of them can ignore. Sloane tells herself it's about healing, but her control is precise, obsessive... seductive. And Priscilla, under Sloane's careful influence, begins to lose sight of where her pain ends and Sloane begins. Because Sloane isn't just hiding secrets. She's using them. And the most dangerous thing about her is how far she'll go to keep Priscilla close. [ wlw romance between a therapist and her patient. Hold on tight, this a messy-dark romance ]
