Cursed devotion

Amalia Rose has always known exactly who she is and exactly what she wants. A quiet, beautiful, ordinary life. A career. A family. A love that fits neatly inside the boundaries she has drawn around herself since childhood.
Then she meets Kieran Storme, and nothing about him fits neatly anywhere.
He is everything she didn't plan for, certain, and completely unwilling to pretend he doesn't feel what he feels. He would burn every careful thing down for her without blinking. And that is precisely the problem.
Because loving Kieran doesn't feel like falling, it feels like dissolving. When she is with him, she is too free, too much, too alive in a way that terrifies her, because a girl who has lost herself in a love like this doesn't build the life she dreamed of. She builds him.
So she holds back. Every time they get close, every time he looks at her like she is the only thing worth looking at, she finds a reason to step away. And Kieran lets her, because he refuses to be something she resents. But he is also done pretending that the right thing and the easy thing are the same.
Cursed devotion is a dark, emotionally devastating romance about two people who are inevitably drawn to each other and are impossible together. About the terrifying difference between a love that fits your life and a love that becomes it. About what it costs to choose control, and what it costs to let it go.
Some loves don't ask permission.
