Obsession - Now a novel by bubblysue

On Wattpad as a novella challenged myself to make it a novel. Now complete, self-edited as can't afford one so there will be errors. Any eagle-eyed proofreaders want to help feel free. If you read the original I hope you like this version. Any feedback appreciated. Will leave it here until 2020 and then will probably self-publish. A thin line between love and obsession. Rosalind's father crosses that line. A big house, full of passion and secrets. The silence of shadows deafening. Over-protection is detrimental. Rosalind is loved greatly by her father and Nanny. Rosalind always tries to please and placate him. Who is the lady that appears only to Rosa? Can a father love too much? Would you keep a secret that might ruin your life to protect another? Nanny does for Rosa.

Only the Everharts and Ashbournes know the true nature of their relationship, and how it, once pleasant, turned bitter. However, not all bonds can be broken. Despite their parent's bias, two young women, Aurelia Everhart and Rosalind Ashbourne, maintain a friendship that has lasted throughout the feud. While they sneakily orchestrate meetings, they run the risk of being caught and punished by their respective families.

Cyclical Despair by dylkanewords

This is a story about a dramatically desperate descent into the depths of self-discovery. It is a story of forbidden love, unreliable narration, and the most extreme deception imaginable, while exploring themes of class, isolation, and familial tension. Our protagonist is one of society's vilest members, so why do we find ourselves pitying him? How long will it take before pity turns to disgust? And why do we find ourselves rooting for him?
