In The Shadows

Vanessa has spent most of her life living under her brother Zachary's rules. Since their parents left, he's made it his responsibility to protect her-even if it means controlling every part of her life.

At a party that was supposed to be harmless, everything falls apart.

A public argument. Too many eyes. Too many secrets slipping out.

And then there's Alexander.

The one person Zachary has always warned her to stay away from. The one person who shows up when he definitely shouldn't. The one person who makes her question everything she's been told about trust, loyalty, and love.

Now Vanessa is caught between obedience and curiosity, family and freedom, and a connection she was never supposed to have.

But some lines aren't just crossed.

They're shattered.
