Damien Blackwood doesn't feel things the way normal people do. Love? A lie. Empathy? Weakness. He lives in shadows, finding beauty in the silence of his victims-until Ivy Monroe stumbles into his world like a melody in the chaos.
She's light, softness, and kindness wrapped in one perfect package. The kind of girl who should stay far away from men like him. But Damien doesn't let go. Once he sets his eyes on her, she becomes his.
Even if she doesn't know it yet.
As Ivy begins to sense a presence always near, a danger lurking in her calm world, she starts to unravel truths no one should ever know. And the closer she gets to Damien... the more she falls.
Because love is twisted.
And monsters can fall in love too

That's all they have to survive. But with tensions rising and a war of wills unfolding, will they walk away unscathed? Or will they lose themselves in the fire they never meant to ignite?Complete

Lyra Hart loved Damien Sinclair in a way the universe never allowed-with quiet glances, stolen moments, and a heart that beat only for him. But to Damien, she was just a familiar presence, she was just his sister's best friend-nothing more, nothing less, a shadow in the backdrop of his life. He belonged to another, and Lyra? She was never his to begin with. So, she smiled at his wedding, swallowed her unspoken love, and walked away. Years passed, and distance was supposed to heal what love had broken. But then came the call-the one that pulled her back to a place she swore she'd never return to. Damien's wife was dead. Murdered. And the man she once knew had vanished, leaving behind only grief, rage, and an obsession to unearth the truth. Now, as she stands beside him once more, bound by a past she never truly escaped, Lyra makes a choice-to help him chase the shadows of a mystery far darker than either of them imagined. Even if it means standing in the ruins of a love that was never hers.

In the hushed corners of the midnight café and stolen glances across rain-soaked city streets, a fragile trust begins to form, built on whispered fears and the simple touch of a hand that says, I see you. But Damien's world is full of the shadow of a past that wants to claim him and a future he's not sure he deserves. And Rory's heart has been broken too many times to trust that a man like him could ever be her safe place.

Can you be soft with someone when the world has always told you to be hard? This is their story.
