Sophie Black is twenty, but she's lived through more than most people twice her age. Trapped in a house that feels more like a prison than a home, she's learned to survive in silence-swallowing pain, hiding scars, and trying to forget a past that never stops chasing her.
Then Brandon Salvatore walks in.
He's older. Dangerous. Untouchable. A man who rules the criminal underworld with cold precision-and eyes that see straight through Sophie's defenses. Brandon doesn't ask. He decides. And when he decides Sophie belongs to him, nothing will stop him from taking her.
She knows he's trouble. He's too controlling, too lethal, and far too off-limits. But when the world has already broken you, danger doesn't scare you-it calls to you.
As Sophie is pulled deeper into Brandon's violent world, everything she thought she knew about love, loyalty, and power begins to shift. He's possessive, ruthless, and infuriating-but he's also the first person who's ever truly seen her.
And once you're seen, you can't go back to being invisible.
This is a dark, twisted love story about survival, obsession, and the kind of love that doesn't ask for permission. It's not sweet. It's not safe. But neither is Sophie. Not anymore.
Trigger warning: contains mature content, violence, trauma, and a morally grey hero who doesn't play by the rules.
