Description

From USA Today bestselling author Rina Kent comes the gripping first installment in a dark and passionate college romance series, where elite criminal families and morally gray heroes take center stage.

Killian Carson is calculated, ruthless, and dangerously obsessive—and his fixation on Glyndon King could lead to both of their downfall.

Beneath his polished exterior, Killian is a predator, his charm and intelligence masking the cruel, manipulative nature lurking beneath. While most are fooled by his facade, Glyndon sees through the illusion. She recognizes the darkness within him and knows she should stay away. But something deep inside her whispers that if she runs, he will chase her—and maybe, just maybe, she wants to be caught.

Glyndon King has always felt like an outsider in her own family. With a mother and brothers who are celebrated for their artistic genius, she’s convinced she will never measure up. But Killian doesn’t need her to meet expectations—he simply claims her as his. Their schools may be rivals, but their undeniable, obsessive connection silences everything else.

Yet broken souls don’t always fit together seamlessly. Can their twisted and all-consuming passion heal the fractures within them, or will the ghosts of their pasts destroy them both? When they realize their histories are far more entangled than they ever imagined, their desires may either make them stronger—or shatter them completely.
