Lila Hart thought moving to Dover's Hollow would be a fresh start. A small town, a quiet life, and a chance to escape the shadows of her past. But some places don't let you forget-and some people can't resist the pull of what you carry.
Evan Cross is dangerous, beautiful, and impossibly drawn to her. There's a darkness in him, a hunger he can barely control, and Lila's blood calls to it in ways she doesn't yet understand.
As secrets claw their way out of the mist, Lila will discover that love can be lethal, trust can be deadly, and desire can awaken monsters that were better left sleeping. In Dover's Hollow, every heartbeat carries a warning-and some connections are bound in blood.
In a town where danger lurks in every shadow, falling for him could be the last mistake she ever makes.

Obession's Edge
"Tired of the same old story where he stalks her?" Lila Hale doesn't wait for love. She hunts it. She tracks it. And when it takes the shape of a man she barely knows - a single father with quiet strength and haunted eyes - she doesn't hesitate. Michael Cross is a different kind of danger. Polished. Controlled. Protective of the little girl who clings to his side. Perfect for the world to see. But under the surface, he's fractured, shadowed, carrying pieces of a past he can't put down. Lila doesn't care about shadows. She lives in them. She wants him. She wants the warmth, the thrill, the obsession - and she's willing to risk everything to take it. The law. The morality she's never believed in. Even her own safety. She doesn't romanticize it. She doesn't justify it. She plans it. She moves through his life like smoke at first: faint traces, small tokens, touches only she knows the truth of. The sheets she presses herself into when he's gone. The quiet marks she leaves behind like breadcrumbs only she can read. The ways she weaves herself deeper into his world without him noticing... at first. But the deeper she slips in, the closer she comes to something neither of them expected: obsession at its purest form. Dangerous. Erotic. All-consuming. This isn't the story of him chasing her. This isn't the story of him discovering her and stopping her. This is the story of what happens when a woman decides she wants a man so completely that rules stop existing - and a man with shadows of his own who finds himself unable, unwilling, to resist the darkness she brings. Welcome to their world. Stay close. Watch carefully. Because in the game of obsession, nothing is as it seems. And once you're inside, there's no way back out.Complete
