Embrace Of Darkness || 18+

Kinsley Adler thought going away to college would help her breathe again.

A new start. A new campus. No reminders of her sister's death.

But at the elite private college she now calls home, there's one person she can't seem to escape: Damien Hendrix.

Cold. Watchful. Impossible to read.

He acts like he can't stand her--as if her smile annoys him, like her presence is irritating. Yet, somehow, he's always there. Watching from across the campus, showing up at every turn.

And the worst part?

Kinsley feels it too.

This is a grumpyxsunshine, dark romance, with some erotic scenes. A slow burn but fast paced with a secret society. It is the first book in a series but can be read as a standalone

*New chapters every Friday*
