Between the Lines

When red-haired, hard-working university student Mattea Grey gets caught in a wild game of Truth or Dare, she never imagines it will change her life. On a whim, she's dared to text five random numbers, and after a few drinks, she forgets all about it. But when a mysterious reply lights up her phone in the middle of the night, she finds herself drawn into an unexpected conversation with a stranger.

On the other end of the line is Esmé Auclair - an enigmatic, reclusive billionaire shrouded in mystery. Her words are captivating, her presence commanding, but beneath her wealth and influence lies a darkness Mattea can't quite grasp. As their late-night exchanges deepen, Esmé's carefully hidden scars begin to surface-whispers of a dangerous past, untold tragedies, and secrets so powerful they could consume them both.

What begins as a chance connection turns into an irresistible bond, but as Mattea is pulled further into Esmé's shadowy world, she must decide how far she's willing to go-and whether some mysteries are better left unsolved.
