She thought love was poetry. Until it became obsession.



⸻



Zora Vance wasn't looking for love until she found Milan Devereaux and Kori St. James. One's mysterious, calculating, and born into power. The other's all heat and heart, with a past that still haunts her.

Milan and Kori have history. Bad history. And now they've got Zora in the middle.

Love, lies, and everything in between.

She's learning to trust. Together they're walking a line between danger and devotion. Where every laugh, every glance, every silence feels like more than it should. This isn't just a love story.
