"He told me not to leave my window open.
He should've told me not to 𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝗺 𝗶𝗻."
Hazel Ambrose lives by three rules:
1. Don't talk about her father.
2. Don't trust people who look too closely.
3. And never, ever fall for someone who feels like a warning.
But then there's Caeser Rivera, the man who watches her from the poetry section every Thursday and walks away without a word... until he doesn't.
He says her name like he's not supposed to know it.
He looks at her like he's waiting for her to remember something she's never known.
And he hides a truth that could shatter everything.
"𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝘂𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝘆 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆. 𝗶 𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗼𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂. 𝗡𝗼𝘄 𝗶 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗶 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽"
Hazel's dad went to prison for crimes he swore he didn't commit. But caeser knows the truth-and he's been keeping it under his skin like a loaded gun.
This isn't just a love story.
It's revenge wrapped in obsession.
And the deeper Hazel falls, the more she realizes...
She was never meant to survive loving him.
