Story Bio:
AMELIA HANSLEY writes to survive.
Poetry is where she hides the things she can't say out loud.
The loneliness, the longing, the quiet hope of being seen. To the world, she's just another girl with a perfect smile and unspoken struggles. But beneath it all, she dreams of a life bigger than the one she's trapped in.
Just when her words begin to matter, everything falls apart.
Pulled into the orbit of a man who offers protection wrapped in control, Amelia's world shifts into something darker , dangerous, and impossible to escape.
He watches her like a promise and a threat all at once.
Her world collapses-dragged into the hands of a man who promises protection... at a terrifying price.
She looked for a hero-
but he's the devil in disguise. She's stuck in a world where she doesn't belong. If that wasn't enough, an unnamed stalker kept crossing her.
Can he be her savior? or the very person she needs saving from?
Will she find the hero she's always written about, or will she fall into the clutches of the villain who thrives on destruction?
