Yet fascination is a dangerous thing. As she finds herself pulled into his world, her fear begins to blur into desire. Against her better judgment, she craves his presence, even as she feels the shadow of his possession tightening around her. Their bond is intoxicating, impossible, and inevitable.

WHAT HE WAS HIDING
Sixteen-year-old Leah Lennox doesn't believe in second chances. Not after her father vanished without a word, leaving behind silence, debt, and a family pretending to be fine. Most nights, she sketches until her hands ache-because drawing hurts less than remembering. Then one rain-soaked night on the boardwalk changes everything. That's when she meets Luca Wilde-an older boy with sharp eyes, dry humor, and secrets buried deep enough to drown in. He's the kind of stranger she should walk away from... but doesn't. As Leah and Luca's lives begin to tangle, the line between truth and lies blurs. Every look feels like a warning, every conversation like a confession he'll never say out loud. And when Leah starts uncovering pieces of her father's disappearance, she realizes Luca might know more than he's telling-maybe even more than she's ready to hear. Caught between the boy who makes her heart race and the truth that could tear her world apart, Leah must decide how far she's willing to go for answers- and whether love can survive the secrets waiting in the dark. Because some connections aren't coincidences. Some secrets are blood. And some nights change you forever.
