My Soul To Keep

Willow Gatlin has always lived like the fire was already burning—reckless, loud, and always one step ahead of the past that haunts her. But the night danger finds her, she discovers there are some things you can’t outrun.

Vexley Omen has spent his life in the shadows, never letting anyone close. The mask he wears isn’t about hiding his face—it’s about hiding himself. With Willow, though, the lines blur. She sees through him in ways no one else has, even as he fights to keep her at a distance.

Together in the remote cabin and hand-built library that has been his refuge, Willow and Vexley are forced to confront more than just the threats hunting them down. In the quiet moments between storms, they find the pieces of themselves they thought were lost—strength, vulnerability, even love.

She never asked for a savior.
He never asked to fall for her.
But some stories are written in blood, and theirs is only the beginning.
