Why we picked it
A strong pick for readers who want dark romance with dangerous attraction, blurred morality, and high emotional intensity. It pairs a murder case and supernatural tension with an obsessive relationship that pushes both leads into uncomfortable territory.
About this book
In this dark standalone romance, Detective Shadow Yor is barely holding himself together. He throws himself into a murder investigation with his partner while battling relentless thoughts that tell him he is worthless and impossible to love. His empathic gift makes the work even harder, and the case may push him past his limits.
Apollo Orobas wears the mask of a charming local good guy, but underneath it he is restless and far from innocent. When Shadow catches his attention, Apollo quickly senses that the detective is hiding a dangerous side of his own. His fascination turns consuming, and he pulls Shadow into a cruel, intimate game that blurs every line Shadow thought he understood. As kidnapping, violence, obsession, and explicit content shape their connection, Shadow is forced to confront what he wants, what he fears, and whether the devil who captivates him might also quiet the voices that have haunted him for so long.
