The Selection isn’t an honor. It’s a hunt.
Blackthorne Harbor University is built on old-money prestige, power, and tradition. But beneath all the ivy and polished facades, something darker thrives.
Every October, an elite secret society posts a list of names. The Selection. Twenty girls marked as prey for the most ruthless and powerful men on campus.
Once the list is up, those girls have twenty-four hours to run and hide… or be claimed. No one knows what happens to those who are caught; only that afterward they’re never the same.
I came here for a hunt of my own, searching for answers about my sister’s death. And in doing so, I’ve caught the attention of the most dangerous man on campus.
Julian Valcourt.
He’s everywhere I turn, watching me like I already belong to him. Trying to drive me away from the truth while pulling me deeper into his orbit. Testing how far he can push me before I break.
I should be terrified of him, but every time he looks at me, the fear twists into something hot and reckless that makes my pulse race and my thighs clench. Something I don’t want to want but can’t stop craving anyway.
Around us, the tension on campus coils tighter each day. Whispers spread. Eyes linger. Everyone is waiting for the same thing.
Now, this year’s List has finally been posted…
And I’m on it.
Which can only mean one thing.
It’s time for Julian Valcourt to stop watching and start hunting.
Nowhere To Hide is a standalone 150k-word MF dark romance that contains dark topics/situations that may be triggering to some.
