Zane Whitlock is a powerful attorney, respected in the courtroom but haunted by a dark secret. Behind his impeccable reputation and cold, calculating exterior lies a man with a past he's desperate to keep buried. As a legal genius who defends the most dangerous criminals, Zane knows how to manipulate the law-but he's about to find that the truth is a far more dangerous force.
Kael Torres is a quiet journalist, obsessed with the criminal world he reports on. By day, he writes for a mid-tier news outlet; by night, he's the anonymous voice behind a popular true crime blog that digs into the darkest corners of unsolved crimes. His investigations have drawn the attention of dangerous people, none more so than Zane, who has been quietly following Kael's work, intrigued by the eerie connections between Kael's writings and Zane's own hidden past.
When their worlds collide at a mutual friend's party, the attraction is immediate. Zane is captivated by Kael's quiet intensity, while Kael finds himself drawn to Zane's commanding presence. What neither of them knows is that they have been circling each other for months, obsessed with the hidden truths they sense beneath the other's surface.
As their encounters become more frequent and their obsession grows, they each begin to uncover unsettling connections between their lives-dark secrets that could destroy them both. Zane sees in Kael's writing a subtle knowledge of his own crimes, while Kael grows increasingly convinced that Zane is hiding something far more sinister than anyone could imagine. As the tension between them mounts, so does the danger.
In Veil of Obsession, desire and suspicion entwine in a dangerous dance where the line between love and manipulation blurs. The more they learn about each other, the deeper they fall into a web of secrets, lies, and dark, consuming obsession. But with every secret uncovered, both men must ask themselves: can they trust each other, or will their obsession destroy them both?
