“Every warning, every red flag, every reason to run—none of it mattered the moment I met him.” I used to follow the rules. The good girl. The one with a plan—a life of faith, purpose, and safety. But one betrayal changed everything. It ripped away my innocence, shattered my dreams, and left me as nothing more than a disgrace to my family. Now, I wear a mask. Fake smiles, quiet compliance, and a determination to survive in a world where I’m no longer seen as enough. New York was supposed to be a fresh start—a chance to rebuild what was broken. Then Gray Carter stormed into my life. A dangerously gorgeous billionaire with a sharp tongue, a wicked smirk, and the uncanny ability to push every button I have. He’s infuriating and arrogant, and so far out of my league, it’s almost laughable. But the more I try to avoid him, the more he gets under my skin. Gray isn’t just trouble—he’s a walking disaster. The kind of man I promised myself I’d never fall for—the kind of man who can ruin me all over again. But Gray doesn’t play by anyone’s rules. Least of all mine. And yet, every look, every touch, and every sinful word pulls me deeper into his orbit. He awakens parts of me I thought were gone—feelings I’ve buried beneath years of pain and betrayal. I know I should stay away. He’s dangerous in every way that matters. But Gray doesn’t know how to back down, and he’s made it clear—he wants me. And I’m starting to think that maybe, just maybe, I want him too. Even if it means risking everything.

“In a world of shadows and danger, he became both my ruin and refuge.” Our love was supposed to conquer everything. But in Gray’s world, shadows have sharp edges, and danger doesn’t knock—it breaks down the door. Just when I thought I could trust him, a dark force from his past resurfaces, pulling us into a game of lies, power, and revenge. He’s trying to protect me, but every secret he keeps pushes me closer to the man who wants to destroy him—and us. Caught between a man who’s my refuge and an enemy who knows how to ruin me, I’m forced to make an impossible choice. Love may not be enough this time, not when the cost is our lives.

“Falling for him wasn’t just a risk—it was a surrender I couldn’t take back.” Loving Gray Carter came with consequences, but I never imagined the price I’d have to pay. I’ve been kidnapped, hunted, and betrayed by the very world he swore to keep me safe from. But the greatest betrayal wasn’t his—it was the one buried in my past. In the wake of everything I’ve lost, I uncover a long-kept secret—one that could either destroy me or save me. The life I thought I knew was built on lies, and now I’m caught between the man I love and the truth I can’t escape. But I’m not the same girl who once lived in Gray’s shadow. I’ve learned how to fight, how to survive, and how to make the ones who hurt me pay. And when a new enemy threatens to take everything from me again, I refuse to let history repeat itself. They think I’m still weak. That I’ll break. But they don’t know the fire they’ve ignited inside me. I’m done running. This time, I’m the one hunting.

"My heart is beating fast against my rib–cage, and I’m pretty sure Killian can hear my heart beating. I make a mistake by slowly turning my head to look at him and our eyes meet, with our lips nearly touching. Our eyes are locked in an intense gaze and his complete attention on me makes my knees go weak. Our close proximity is nearly driving me insane and his rich cologne fills my brain, automatically shutting my brain off".

Some loves are forbidden. Others are undeniable. Cameron Brooke is starting college with one goal: stay focused, stay invisible, and definitely stay away from boys like Fox Wilder—the charming, reckless son of the university chancellor. Fox is everything Cameron was warned about: cocky, chaotic, and dangerously attractive. But when they’re forced to share an apartment, Cameron’s carefully built walls begin to crack. For a closeted freshman raised by strict religious parents, falling for his roommate was never part of the plan. Fox isn’t looking for complications either—but there’s something about Cameron he can’t ignore. Kiss Me In The Dark is a steamy, enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity romance that burns slow… then explodes. Full of heat, heart, and hard truths, it’s about falling for the one person who sees through your walls—and makes you want to tear them down. They were supposed to be a mistake. But some mistakes feel too good to regret.
