Book 1 in the Beneath series- Javan and Sarah's love story.
It's a college-dark romance with lots of trigger warnings. In case you have trigger warnings I suggest you stay out of it, if not, I assure you gonna love it.
excerpt to hook you:
Sarah
"Listen very carefully," his voice was low, husky, and deep, each word deliberate and laden with intensity. "Don't wait for me to say words like 'I love you,' 'I like you,' or 'Please be my girlfriend' and all that bullshit. I won't say those things!" I swallowed hard, licking my lips as I blinked, absorbing his words. "Those are just empty phrases. Love is an illusion, a facade we use to justify meaningless bullshit. But what will happen between us is something entirely different. What you will experience is real. I will show it to you, and you will take it because I want you. You don't have a choice in this because-" he breathed heavily, pulling me closer until our lips were nearly brushing, "-I'm obsessed. What I feel for you is an obsession, a craving, and I want more than just Sarah. I want everything that makes you, you. I want all of you!"
In an instant, he pressed his lips against mine, claiming every breath I had been holding in. He pushed deeper as his tongue explored mine with a primal urgency. My mind spiraled into a trance, engulfed by his words, and the overwhelming nature of the moment was intoxicating. Was this even a confession? It felt like it was, yet I loved the way he articulated it. I fucking did. My heart raced, blood surged through my veins, and my entire world felt constricted to this singular point in time. I was under his command, entirely beneath him. And strangely, I was starting to revel in it.
Javan was every mistake I knew I should stay away, every madness that was going to drown me but I was ready to drown in it.
"You're Soaking Wet, Are you sure you don't want me?" he asked, his voice soft yet laced with a dangerous edge
"N-no," she stuttered, her voice trembling as his hand slowly moved up her inner thighs, his touch sending a shiver down her spine.
"But your body is telling me something different," he replied, his voice low and teasing as his hand was under her pants and continued to gently caress her inner thigh
"I-I don't..." she stuttered again, unable to finish her sentence
"I've seen your search history. Why didn't you tell me you wanted to try those things?"
Meghna's eyes widened at his words, a mixture of surprise and desire flashing across her face. She had never wanted to admit just how attractive she found him-the way his body enticed her, how every inch of him drew her in. She couldn't help but think about his long, thick fingers, the very ones she secretly craved to feel inside her.

• The male lead in this story is intensely possessive, obsessive and manipulative so proceed with caution if those themes make you uncomfortable but I can assure you that he is not a cheater
• This book has a subtle connection to my second novel, "Venomous Love." While it stands on its own, it shares certain themes and characters that will be familiar to readers
