Cecily has always blended in well, moving through life with her head low and staying unnoticed. Wanting a fresh start, she spots a job add for a campground for the summer and she takes it instantly.
Working at the campground is perfect, the sun. The lake, and the peace. Spending most of her time alone.
But just when she truly thinks she's invisible, she's snatched up in the dark woods by two men who've been watching her for months.
Their hunger and obsession for her know no bounds, and they'll do whatever it takes to have her. And keep her. They've watched her since she arrived, sunshine and beauty wrapped in curves.
She tries her best to get away, even when she doesn't want to. But she's no match for their speed and strength. And before she knows it, she falls for their dark ways, finally starting to accept them when she finds out their darkest secret.
Will she escape, or have they already dragged her too far?

Siren Song ~Dark Romance~ 18+
He's been watching her for weeks. She's been performing for him almost as long. Neither of them planned to fall. Amber Knight's anxiety has a soundtrack-the hum of her laptop at 3 AM, the tap of rain against windows, the silence of a phone that never rings with the right voice. She's perfected the art of looking fine while slowly disappearing, and everyone in her life believes the show. Everyone except Porter Blackwell. Porter sees through her careful lighting and choreographed movements to the woman drowning behind the glass. He knows watching her is wrong. Following her friends is worse. Breaking into her house crosses every line he's ever drawn for himself. But when caring becomes obsession and protection becomes possession, some lines are worth crossing. Some obsessions destroy. Others save. And sometimes, being seen by the wrong person is exactly what you need. A dark romance about two broken people finding salvation in the spaces between right and wrong. For readers who love their romance dark, their heroes morally gray, and their heroines strong enough to choose their own salvation.
A Safer Kind Of Quiet
This is a story about a woman who did not disappear. She was taken, yes, but disappearing suggests absence, and she was never truly gone. She remained, piece by piece, in the places she was kept, in the rules she learned, in the silences that followed her voice. This is a story about what happens when survival begins to look like devotion, and devotion begins to feel like love. It is not a story about monsters hiding in the dark. It is about the ones who believe they are right. The ones who build homes instead of cages, who call control protection, who mistake fear for loyalty. The kind of men who do not see themselves as cruel, only necessary. And it is about a woman who wanted a life that was gentle. What follows is not meant to shock you. It is meant to stay with you. To linger in the spaces between thoughts, in the moments where choice becomes unclear and escape no longer feels like freedom. Read it slowly.Complete
