Shadows of Desire

Zevie is used to being invisible. A plus-sized, book-loving med student surrounded by thin, effortlessly beautiful friends, she's always felt like the wallflower, watching from the sidelines as life passes her by. When she isn't immersed in her studies, she's lost in romance novels, yearning for the kind of love that only exists between the pages.

But her life takes a thrilling turn when she senses a mysterious stranger watching her-a man with piercing dark eyes who seems to know her every move. Eli Moretti, a powerful figure in the city's shadows, has set his sights on her. Captivated by her quiet beauty and gentleness, he slips into her life like a shadow, leaving her notes and gifts, promising he sees her even if no one else does.

As Eli's presence grows bolder, Zevie finds herself caught in a dangerous game between her head and her heart. Will she be able to embrace the love she's always longed for, or will her heart be consumed by the darkness that follows him?
