Evelyn Hayes, an investigative journalist known for unearthing hidden truths, returns to her childhood home after inheriting it from a distant relative. The house carries dark memories-whispers of her great-aunt's tragic disappearance decades prior, believed to be a murder. The mystery surrounding the disappearance grips Evelyn, especially after she finds an old diary describing disturbing visions and an unidentified man haunting her ancestor.
While digging into the past, Evelyn becomes the target of Victor Kane, a secretive and dangerous man with a twisted moral compass. By day, Victor is a reclusive tech genius with connections to unsolved disappearances and underground organizations, working to dismantle human trafficking networks through his own ruthless methods. But Evelyn's curiosity and refusal to turn back catch Victor's attention, making her both his fascination and an unwitting accomplice in his dark world.
As Evelyn gets closer to the truth, she realizes Victor has been manipulating the events around her, drawing her into his orbit. Their intense relationship tests her limits, torn between fear, desire, and a twisted connection neither of them can break. But Evelyn begins to wonder if the real danger lies in Victor or in her own growing obsession with the man hiding in the shadows.

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.

Tied to You
Some cages don't have locks. Evelyn's childhood home has never felt empty-not after the accident, not after she lost her parents, and not after Jace moved in. He's always been there. Through every scraped knee, every heartbreak, every moment that shaped her into the person she is. So she doesn't question the way he watches over her. The way he always knows where she's been. The way the house feels smaller than it used to. Jace is struggling. Just like she is. And she won't abandon him now. But when Knox enters her world, something shifts. For the first time, she feels like she can breathe. Like the walls around her aren't closing in. And that's when she starts to notice them-the cracks in the life she thought she understood. The silence that lingers too long. The way Jace watches when he thinks she isn't looking. The feeling of being trapped in a house that was never supposed to be a cage. Something is wrong. It always has been. And by the time she realizes the difference between love and captivity-it might be too late to run.

In the end, she will be forced to choose-save the man she loves or let go, risking a terrifying price for herself and the future.Complete

Captive{ated}
"First you captivated me... then you held me captive." Evelyn was like most college-aged girls working a part-time job when she met Caleb, who came in to her life when she wanted him least but needed him most. He captivated her. By the end of summer, she had fallen in love with him. It was then that he wanted her to meet his parents. And that's when everything changed. Caleb was not the man Evelyn thought he was. He came from a secluded village that did things much differently from the rest of society. Isolated in one of the most sparsely populated areas of the country, it was as if they live in their own little world. They were a traditional village for the most part, but there were some aspects that they did much differently than any other, especially in the ways of courtship. It didn't take long for Evelyn to realize one thing: once you were brought home to meet the parents, there was no escape.Complete
