They called her the damned child. He called her his only hope.
Bellatrix Moonshine has never been able to escape the shadows of her past. Branded as dangerous since childhood, she hides her scars behind computer screens and sharp wit, keeping everyone at a distance. Everyone but Theo and Sammy-the two boys who grew up by her side, the only ones who saw her as more than a curse.
When Sammy and Theo stumble onto a stolen flash drive linked to the very secrets Bella has tried to bury, the three of them are pulled into a web of conspiracies, lies, and old enemies. To protect her friends, Bella must confront the truth she's spent her whole life running from.
But some secrets don't stay buried. And some feelings can't be ignored.
As the danger closes in, Bella and Theo find themselves caught between fear and longing, trust and betrayal. Together, they'll have to decide if love is strong enough to survive the darkness-or if Bella's past will tear them apart before they've even had the chance to begin.
Mystery, romance, and dark secrets collide in The Damned Child, a story of love tested by shadows, friendship pushed to its limits, and the fight to reclaim a future that was never meant to exist.
