About this book

Haunting Adeline When a woman discovers she has the power to manipulate emotions, she finds herself utterly powerless against the mysterious man who's become her shadow—watching, waiting, and refusing to let her go. He's everywhere she looks, an obsessive presence she can't quite bring herself to push away, especially when his attention ignites something dangerous and intoxicating within her. What starts as a cat-and-mouse game of control becomes a twisted dance where neither player can walk away, even as the line between attraction and obsession blurs dangerously. This is dark, intense, and absolutely gripping—perfect for readers who crave morally gray characters and relationships that blur every line.

Dark, obsessive tension meets forbidden desire. Deep electronic beats, moody indie, and sultry R&B that captures the intoxicating pull of a dangerous presence. Atmospheric, magnetic, and smoldering—where control slips away and danger feels like a thrill.
