Leah's life was small by design-routine, quiet, safe. She never asked too many questions. Never looked too closely at the things that didn't make sense. Until one day, she did. That's when she met Matias. He was cold, unreadable, magnetic in a way she couldn't explain. He wasn't meant to notice her. But he did. And once he had her, he didn't let go. What started as a spark turned into a pattern: the soft moments, the sharp ones, the slow unraveling she mistook for love. She told herself it wasn't toxic. That he needed her. That she was still free. But obsession has rules. And Matias has already broken every one.Complete

Soft Like Sin - Every secret leaves a mark. Some just go deeper.
Dakota "Ducky" Moore has spent most of her life trying to disappear - the quiet girl behind the camera, the best friend who never takes the spotlight. But when she and her soon-to-be-married best friend go to get matching tattoos, she meets Alex - a man with ocean-blue eyes, a crooked smile, and a touch that feels like fire. He's everything she's not: bold, dangerous, and too damn confident for his own good. He shouldn't notice her. But he does. What starts as teasing and ink turns into something deeper - something that feels safe in all the wrong ways. But Alex isn't who he seems. When the secrets under his skin start to surface, Dakota finds herself tangled in a world she was never meant to see - one that bleeds violence, loyalty, and sin. And the deeper she falls, the harder it becomes to tell the difference between love and danger... and between the marks made by ink and the ones left by him.
