Who May Not Like This Book:
This story isn't for everyone - many readers are deeply uncomfortable with the book's treatment of consent, the significant age gap, and the normalization of abusive, manipulative behavior. Readers looking for healthy relationships or hero redemption arcs will likely be frustrated by the lack of positive character growth. The main character's psychological journey may feel implausible or problematic, especially if you struggle with books that feature non-consensual encounters or want strong, self-rescuing heroines. Caution: If you have triggers related to sexual violence or coercion, you may want to skip this one.

From The Publisher:
A man obsessed. A girl abducted. The darkest love story ever told...
Kidnapped. Taken to a private island.
I never thought this could happen to me. I never imagined one chance meeting on the eve of my eighteenth birthday could change my life so completely.
Now I belong to him. To Julian. To a man who is as ruthless as he is beautiful-a man whose touch makes me burn. A man whose tenderness I find more devastating than his cruelty.
My captor is an enigma. I don't know who he is or why he took me. There is a darkness inside him-a darkness that scares me even as it draws me in.
My name is Nora Leston, and this is my story.
