Calliope fled the chaos of her city life, hoping the quiet, stormy seaside town of Birkworth Bay-mockingly called "Boogeyman Bay"-would offer solace. But when her late-night run-in with a predatory creature leaves her shaken yet strangely drawn, she realizes she's caught in something darker than she could have imagined. Nathaniel, the town's enigmatic stranger, seems to know far too much about the monster stalking her, his velvet words and sharp gaze leaving her breathless and unnerved. But as the line blurs between protector and predator, Calliope finds herself torn between Nathaniel's dangerous charm and the primal pull of the beast that craves her in the shadows. In Boogeyman Bay, nothing is as it seems. And surrendering to desire might be the only way to survive. ‼️ Mature Content Warning ‼️ Graphic depictions of sexuality, violence, gore and adult situations!
