Dark Romance / Stalker Thriller
Summary:
Hazel Thorne's life shatters the moment Lucas Ward sets his sights on her.
Polished. Obsessive. Unrelenting-Lucas isn't a stranger. He's the half-brother of Ava Ward, Hazel's closest friend turned manipulator. But where Ava's cruelty is cold and calculated, Lucas's fixation burns hot, intimate, and inescapable.
What begins with surveillance spirals into control. Hazel receives anonymous messages. Photos of herself she never took. A sense of being watched that never quite fades. And yet... beneath the fear, something darker stirs-a pull she doesn't understand. A connection that shouldn't exist.
Lucas isn't just obsessed-he's methodical. A master of shadows. And he knows Hazel better than she knows herself. But when Ava begins to unravel and re-insert herself, jealous and dangerous, the tension explodes. Ava wants her brother back. Lucas only wants Hazel. And Hazel is left in the middle-captive, desired, and changing.
As secrets unravel and power shifts, Hazel finds herself falling-not into madness, but into a love twisted by pain, trauma, and terrifying devotion.
By the end, Lucas and Hazel are no longer predator and prey.
They're partners in a bond built not on trust... but on survival.
They marry. They have children.
And together, they make sure Ava watches everything she lost.
