She thought she had him figured out-Xavier, her high school crush, the boy she'd pined for for years, the one who broke her heart without even trying. But when she walks out of the café humiliated and heartbroken, she doesn't expect the night to spiral into a haze of alcohol, reckless decisions, and a single encounter that will change everything. The next morning, she wakes up somewhere unfamiliar, naked, vulnerable... and realizes the man she lost herself to isn't just a stranger. He's been watching her, following her, knowing her in ways she doesn't even understand. Possessive, intoxicating, and terrifying, he claims her as his own. What begins as fear and uncertainty slowly twists into a dangerous, consuming obsession. As their worlds collide, lines blur between love and possession, trust and control, desire and danger. And in the heat of it all, she discovers that surrendering to him may be both the most terrifying-and thrilling-thing she's ever done.
