Selene Vance has always been captivated by art-the way it reflects the beauty and complexity of life. When she stumbles upon Damien Cross's art gallery, she's immediately entranced by his works, each one darker and more compelling than the last. Damien, the gallery's owner, is a man of contradictions-on the surface, sweet, compassionate, and caring, yet beneath it all, he harbors a dangerous obsession with the idea of love.
A single interaction changes both of their lives forever. As Selene is drawn into Damien's world, she finds herself entangled in a relationship that is both mesmerizing and unnerving. She is unaware of his darker intentions, of the obsession that has already begun to consume him, and the dangerous lengths he's willing to go to make her his own.
For Damien, art is not just a passion-it's a way to capture, control, and possess. And Selene, the one person whose love could either redeem him or push him over the edge, has unwittingly become the latest masterpiece in his twisted vision of what love can be.
