About this book

When Rose is taken hostage by the notorious Danny Black as collateral in a dangerous power play, she expects cruelty—what she doesn't expect is the magnetic pull between them that threatens everything she's fighting to protect. Danny sees through her carefully constructed walls in ways no one else ever has, awakening desires she can't afford to feel while trapped in his world of violence and vengeance. As their twisted attraction deepens, both must grapple with powerful emotions that become increasingly risky in a life where enemies circle from every direction. This is a dark, gritty romance that doesn't shy away from the danger and intensity of their connection—perfect for readers who love morally complex characters and high-stakes passion.

Dark, sultry tension with dangerous allure. Moody alternative rock, sensual R&B, and brooding indie—the sound of magnetic pull wrapped in shadows. Think Cigarettes After Sex meets The Neighbourhood meets deep electronic undertones. Intoxicating, edgy, unapologetically intense.
