Everyone loved Theodore Lynch. Marie was the only one who knew the truth.
Marie was just thirteen when she met Theodore Lynch.
Captain of the BCS hurling team. School champion. Blond hair, green eyes, and the kind of smile that made everyone believe he was untouchable.
Falling for him was easy.
At first, he was everything she'd ever dreamed of.
By fourteen, the doors closed for Marie.
Not just closed, locked.
Behind the perfect reputation and championship medals was someone no one else could see: controlling, manipulative, and cruel. While the school cheered his victories on the pitch, Marie was fighting a battle no one knew existed.
She wanted to leave.
He simply wouldn't let her.
Bound by threats, manipulation, and blackmail, Marie became too terrified to walk away. No one would believe the golden boy could ever be capable of such darkness.
And then there were the two pink lines.
Hidden at the bottom of her sock drawer was a flimsy piece of plastic that would change everything.
Because escaping Theodore Lynch was about to become truly impossible.
