Linnea
The plan was simple. Answer the ad. Take the room. Vanish somewhere my stepfather's debts couldn't follow.
Problem number one? My new roommate paid those debts off the day I signed the lease.
Problem number two? He's the reason I ran in the first place.
Dorian remembers how I take my coffee. He installed the deadbolt himself — "for my safety." He owns the building, the lease, the paper my name is on, and he collected all three before I ever stepped off the bus. Every exit I thought I found, he built.
I came to the city to disappear.
He'd been counting on it for years.
He thinks he's already won — that the story ends with his ring on my finger and his name where my future used to be. That I'll learn to want it.
He forgot the first rule of anything this sweet.
You never taste the poison until it's too late.
Genre: Romance
