Book

Sarah is a woman haunted by her past, living in the shadows of her former self. Her life, once filled with hope, has been reduced to a series of survival tactics—each day a battle against the demons that refuse to let her go.“Safety was a fragile illusion, a glass bubble that could shatter at any moment, leaving me exposed to the darkness always lurking just out of sight.”

But when Atlas—a man as mysterious as he is powerful—enters her life, Sarah is forced to confront the darkness that lies within both of them. Atlas sees beyond her brokenness, drawn to the strength she hides beneath layers of pain and fear. He’s determined to put her back together, but the line between fixing and controlling is dangerously thin.


“Her broken pieces fit perfectly with mine, like we were meant to find each other in the wreckage of our lives.”
