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

Worse for Love- Book #3 in the WF Series
Love. A word that never made sense to Ivy Blanchard. Yes, she helps all of her friends with every relationship because she wants to see them happy, but she never really believed in the exaggerated picture of what "love" is. Trusting someone completely by opening up to them has never really amused her, and maybe that's because of what she went through as a little girl. When one day, she gets drunk and calls Kai Hale; one of her cousin's friends, to come and get her, it escalates into a fake relationship that neither of them expected. To convince her friend that she doesn't need help finding love, she decides to create a fake relationship with Kai. Although, the lie only begins to lead into other things that neither one of them realized or were prepared for. Kai is the exact opposite of Ivy. Smiling is second nature to him, and love is definitely something he's always believed in, he just doesn't have enough time for it with his complicated schedule. When Ivy and him begin getting close though, he realizes there definitely is something happening, but convincing Ivy that it's okay to let someone in is harder than he thought it would be. Will he actually get over the wall she's built since she could remember?Complete
Never his
She loved in silence, but silence was never enough...A Love That Was Never Meant to Be... 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. A slow-burn tale of longing and loss, love and betrayal-where the heart aches for what it was never meant to hold, and the truth waits in the silence, waiting to be found.

The Echo of Us
In the city that never sleeps, she was the one thing that made him pause. Damien Blackwell has everything: money, power, and control. But behind the polished veneer and the cold steel of his empire, he's haunted by secrets he's never dared to share. Rory Bellamy has always been the one in the background, fixing other people's stories and never daring to write her own. Her world is quiet, measured in words on a page and late-night edits at a corner café. Until him. When their worlds collide, neither of them is ready for the slow, consuming burn that begins to smolder between them. 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. As the nights grow longer and the tension crackles with every lingering touch, they'll have to decide: Can you surrender to love when you've spent your whole life learning how to stand alone? Can you be soft with someone when the world has always told you to be hard? This is their story. A slow-burn romance that dares to believe that even the most guarded hearts can learn to open...and that sometimes, the gentlest love can be the most powerful of all.Complete
