Until you Break Love
Lily Winters never expected her quiet life to turn into a nightmare. As a librarian who spends her days lost in books and her nights caring for stray animals, she thought the most thrilling part of her life was the dark romance novels she secretly indulged in. That changes when she befriends the wealthy and elegant Isabelle Lancaster-completely unaware that this connection will put her in the sights of someone far more dangerous. Eden Lancaster has everything-power, money, and an unshakable will. But when she lays eyes on Lily for the first time, something snaps inside her. Lily is perfect, soft, and innocent-the ideal possession. From that moment on, Eden's life revolves around one goal: making Lily hers, no matter the cost. As Lily starts noticing strange occurrences-her usual café suddenly shutting down, her coworker mysteriously quitting, and an eerie feeling of being watched-she begins to suspect someone is controlling her life from the shadows. But the truth is far worse than she could have imagined. Eden is not just watching her. She is eliminating every obstacle in their way. And when Lily finally realizes how deep the obsession runs, it's already too late. She is trapped in a web of manipulation, desire, and dark secrets she cannot escape. Because Eden doesn't just want her. She owns her. And she will do whatever it takes to break her. ---
