A dark high school taboo bully romance

Her secret could ruin her, but his obsession might save them both.

When Rhys uses her secret to bind her to him, Isabelle’s carefully constructed defenses crumble. His touch ignites a forbidden fire, and their clandestine encounters blur the line between coercion and desire. Each stolen moment in the academy’s dark corners pulls her deeper into his world, where love and control are impossible to untangle.
