Kendall Atherton- a promising psychology student, has been given the most unusual proposition- payment of a whole semester's tuition fees if she agrees to treat a patient in his home. Maton Lee has been through a traumatic experience, one that sees him confined to his apartment. Vanessa- his desperate mother, just wants to see him get well. But his challenging and rude demeanour is so much more than what Kendall can handle. Defeated and humiliated she vows never to return. But Kendall has already accepted Vanessa's money and owes it to her to make one more attempt to get through to the broken yet beautiful man.
 
It's not long before Kendall is drawn to him, but this is not a normal boy meets girl situation. If anyone discovers she is having an affair with Maton, she will be thrown out of her course. But the last person Kendall expects to expose her is Maton himself. Except Maton doesn't count on the strength of his feelings for her and when Kendall's life comes under threat from the same man who preyed upon him, he may just have left it too late to tell her how he really feels.

Brianna had always admired Adam from afar. Her brother Caine's best friend was everything she dreamt of. He was strong, confident and untouchable. With Adam being ten years her senior, her innocent crush was nothing more than a fleeting dream, tucked away like a cherished secret. Her brother would never have allowed a relationship between them and made it very clear from the start for Adam not to overstep. Adam did the right thing and kept his attention on anything but Brianna who was but a temptation right from the start. But when tragedy strikes and Caine dies unexpectedly, Brianna's world is upended. To honor his friend's final wish, Adam takes Brianna under his wing, promising to care for her and keep her safe. At first, his guidance feels like a lifeline as Brianna navigates her grief, but soon, Adam's protective nature takes on a darker edge. What starts as concern evolves into an all-consuming obsession.

Trapped between her own conflicting feelings and Adam's unrelenting control, Brianna must uncover the truth about Adam's motives and find a way to escape his tightening grip before her love for him becomes her undoing. Dark, intense, and filled with twists, Compelled explores the fine line between love and obsession, and the lengths someone will go to keep what they believe is theirs.
