Seraphine Collins thought she knew love. For two years, Nathaniel Banks was her world. Charismatic, protective, intoxicating. It was heaven... until it wasn't.

Enter Liam Mathews. Calm, precise, unnervingly intense, and somehow the only one who sees the fractures in her perfect world. When he steps into her life, the delicate balance she's built starts to crumble.

Because love isn't always gentle. Sometimes it's sharp. Sometimes it leaves bruises, visible or otherwise. And sometimes, you have to decide whether to stay in a world that's familiar but toxic, or step into the unknown, where safety might finally exist... but only if you're brave enough to survive the storm.

Seraphine must navigate the blurred lines between obsession, protection, and obsession disguised as care. Every choice could bring comfort... or destruction. And some rescues come too late.

This is a novella about love, control, survival, and the consequences of letting someone in when they shouldn't be trusted. The last rescue is always the hardest.
