Synopsis:

He torments me.

He's crazy.

When he comes back...

I won't make him leave.

It started with rain, notes, a rose—a masked figure in the fog. Anna knows she should be afraid, but she's not leaving.

One night, Rowan sees something he can't ignore. He tells himself he won't get involved-check in, check out, done.

He doesn't walk away.

Watching turns into caring. Caring spirals into something darker—until he becomes the man who won't let anyone else touch her.

He thought he could save them both.

He was wrong.

Anna knows what happens when she ignores her instincts.

Is he the man she can trust?

If not... why does she feel like she should?

Even if death took me, l'd crawl from my gravecovered in mud and maggotsfor another glimpse of her...

Riven Cairn II writes modern gothic dark romance rooted in obsession and the dangerous intimacy of being truly seen.
