Rhea Moretti wanted eight months somewhere beautiful. Eight months inside Blackwood Towers, surrounded by rain-soaked windows, impossible luxury, and people wealthy enough to consider a thirty-four-dollar cup of coffee reasonable. It was supposed to be a temporary escape-one wildly irresponsible decision before she returned to a life that made sense. Then she drops an entire case file in the lobby. The stranger who helps her gather the scattered pages is tall, infuriatingly observant, and far too amused by her embarrassment. By the time Rhea learns his name, Julian Blackwood has already moved into the apartment directly across from hers. Julian is controlled, distant, and accustomed to being wanted for everything attached to his last name. Rhea is one of the only people who appears unimpressed by any of it. He should leave her alone. Instead, he begins noticing her routines. Finding reasons to cross the hallway. Capturing moments through his camera that were never meant to belong to him. Coffee becomes conversation. Curiosity becomes possession. And the closer Rhea gets to the man beneath the Blackwood name, the harder it becomes to decide whether his attention makes her feel protected-or watched. But the Blackwood family didn't build its empire without burying a few things beneath it. As attraction turns into obsession and long-hidden crimes begin rising to the surface, Rhea and Julian will have to decide how much truth their relationship can survive. Because some love stories begin with a chance encounter. Others only look that way. FOUND YOU FIRST is a dark romance and psychological thriller featuring forced proximity, billionaire romance, mutual obsession, stalking, hidden identities, family corruption, revenge, explicit sexual content, and morally complicated characters. Mature audiences only.
