Love isn't the only thing that leaves bruises.
On an island built on secrets, blood is just the beginning.
Elara Hart wasn't supposed to survive him-not the fists, not the gaslighting, not the slow suffocation of a love designed to break her.
But she did.
Six months after escaping her abusive fiancé, Elara's dragged to an exclusive "healing" retreat by her younger sister and influencer best friend. She's not looking for peace. She just wants to make it through without losing the mask she's worked so hard to rebuild.
Until he shows up.
Cassian Vale-tattooed, unreadable, and dangerous in ways Elara can't quite name-isn't supposed to be hers. He's matched with someone else. But his stare burns too long. His words cut too deep. And every stolen glance turns into something darker.
Something neither of them can stop.
Because this retreat isn't what it seems.
Because the producers are watching.
Because something else is watching too.
And Cassian?
He isn't just a forbidden distraction-he's hiding a brutal past that's about to collide with hers in ways neither of them are ready for.
Tangled in obsession, lies, and something far more sinister than either of them can explain, Elara is about to learn the hardest truth:
Some stories don't end when you survive them.
They begin there.
