ABOUT: Arden Ashbourne is a college student with a secret - by day, she's the top of her engineering class. By night, she dances under neon lights to survive. Her world is sharp, hungry, and unforgiving. Elias Carrington is untouchable - a wealthy, quiet pre-law student who moves through life like nothing can touch him. Cold. Controlled. Until her. What begins as glances turns to gravity. He watches her like she's art. Touches her like prayer. Loves her like ruin. But love like this doesn't come clean. It's messy. Raw. Slow-burning and soul-consuming. She was never meant to be his salvation, but now he can't breathe without her. And when he has her - in his arms, on his face, wrapped around his heart - he doesn't hold back. This is not a story of perfection. This is a story of what it means to be wanted in your entirety - bruised, beautiful, and burning. Mature. Obsessive. Intoxicating. This is worship dressed as love. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ "You," he growled, backing me into the wall just inside the loft and pressing his body hard against mine, "are the hottest, smartest fucking girl I've ever met." I was giddy, breathless, already burning. "Elias-" "Who's my smart girl?" he whispered against my ear, his breath hot, his hands already sliding under my shirt. My entire body lit up. The compliment. The heat in his voice. The sheer ownership threaded into that question. "I am," I gasped. He pulled back just enough to look at me, eyes blazing, jaw tight. "Say it again." "I'm your smart girl," I whispered, flushed and aching. "Damn right you are." He kissed me then-hard, hungry, lips claiming mine with heat that melted straight down my spine. My back hit the wall with a soft thud, but I didn't care. I couldn't think. I could barely breathe. His tongue slid into my mouth, and I moaned into the kiss, hips rocking against his without meaning to.

He cups my face, his thumb brushing my cheek. "Come on. You know you're the only one for me." He kisses my forehead. What would you do if you discovered that your husband of eighteen years is having an affair? No... don't answer yet. 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬. Eighteen years. Not eighteen days. A history. A family. There's a long road between suspicion, the footprints left in the sand, and the devastating truth that the life you knew is already over. I saw it coming. I felt it in my bones. Late nights at work. Sleeping at the office. The distance... the way his eyes could no longer hold mine. Lipstick stains where they didn't belong. Unfamiliar scents clinging to a man who should only ever smell like him and me. 𝘏𝘪𝘮 & 𝘮𝘦. But when a third person enters your marriage... there's nothing left to save. 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘩𝘰𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘏𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘥𝘦 is the first book in a trilogy that follows Cecily's journey. From heartbreak and having her world fractured more than once, to the slow, painful process of rebuilding herself and finding true love. The kind of love powerful enough to reshape worlds and give meaning to every wound left behind. Described by readers as an unflinching, realistic, and raw exploration of love, betrayal, and the fractures that change everything... the kind of story that cuts deep, lingers, and refuses to release you even after the final page. ⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆ ₊⋆ Cheating ⋆⁺ OWD (Other Woman Drama) ₊⋆ Marriage in Crisis ⋆⁺ Emotional Betrayal ₊⋆ Long-Term Marriage ⋆⁺ Domestic Angst ₊⋆ Moral Ambiguity 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴 18+.
