Evelyn Cross has spent years running from the darkness of her past, building a life that is both a fragile sanctuary and a cage of her own making. When Mira Sutton enters her life, Evelyn feels a spark of hope for something better-something real. But secrets are hard to bury, and Evelyn's dangerous history refuses to stay in the shadows.

As Evelyn grows closer to Mira, she finds herself torn between the woman who loves her and the life she left behind. When an old figure from her past resurfaces with a chilling demand, Evelyn is forced to confront the truth of who she is-and whether she deserves the chance to change.

But the walls she's built to protect herself might end up destroying everything she's come to care about. As her past and present collide, Evelyn must decide: can she save herself without losing Mira in the process?

[Vᴏʟᴜᴍᴇ 1 - Cᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ] Evelyn White was born with a gift - or rather, a curse: the first time she touches someone, she sees when and how that person dies. Meeting new people is sickening. Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives. But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. Trying to get close using mind games and tricks. It knows about her powers. It knows she can change Fate - and it's not alone. ------------------------------------------- This book is written in Australian English and uses British style grammar.

The Darkness Between Us

11 parts Ongoing Mature

Evelyn Carter doesn't believe in coincidences. A psychology and criminology student, she's spent years dissecting the human mind-to hunt the truth behind her parents' death. When her latest research leads her to a quiet café, she's searching for answers. Instead, she finds fire and destruction. Leonard DeLuca wasn't supposed to be there. The Mafia prince has spent his life in the shadows, following orders, cleaning up messes, never questioning his place-until now. "You don't get to ask questions, cara mia-not when the answers could get you killed." Trapped in his world, Evelyn refuses to break. But the more she digs, the more she realises that the truth isn't just tangled with the Mafia-it's buried beneath blood and betrayal. "You saved me once, but tell me, Leo-who's going to save you?" A dark, enemies-to-lovers romance where loyalty is a curse, love is a risk, and the truth is deadlier than both.
