She found him broken and bleeding. She should have walked away.
Caroline Smith has seen what Gotham does to people. As a reporter, she's made a career out of exposing it. But the night she finds Batman collapsed outside her apartment, something shifts. She doesn't run. She lets him in.
He's colder than legend says. A man of silence, shadows, and unshakable control. But Caroline gets too close, and Bruce starts to feel what he's spent a lifetime trying to avoid.
Now the Court of Owls has her name, and the city is growing darker by the hour. Secrets spiral. Trust is a risk. And the man behind the mask is falling for her, slowly and inevitably, despite everything he swore he would never let happen.
A slow-burn romance set in the shadows of Gotham, where love doesn't come without consequence.
