Malevolent God
(2026)(The third book in the Gods of North Haven University series)
A novel by J M Stoneback
Memory lost. Obsession unbroken.
Winter doesn’t remember the man she married.
And that almost destroys me.
I remember everything.
I remember the moment she realized I wasn’t the hero she wanted—but the monster she chose before she understood the cost.
The night she slipped her key into my door at North Haven University.
The way she whispered my name like a secret she was already afraid to keep.
Now she wakes in a hospital bed, stripped of memory, staring at me like I’m a threat.
Maybe I am.
But I’m the only one who came for her.
The only one who knows who did this.
The only one who understands that forgetting me doesn’t make her safe—it makes her vulnerable.
She thinks amnesia gives her distance.
A clean slate.
A way out.
She’s wrong.
I didn’t spend months loving her, protecting her, shaping a life around us—
just to lose her to a blank mind.
Winter was mine before she forgot my name.
She'''ll be mine while she’s afraid of me.
And she’ll be mine again when the memories return—because the truth isn’t what will trap her.
It’s what she chose when she still remembered who I was.
And if that truth frightens her?
Good.
Because I’m not letting her run.
Not from me.
Not from what we were.
Not from the bond she helped build.
A dark college romance with a psychological thriller core and horror undertones.
Featuring memory loss, identity fracture, and an unapologetically obsessive hero whose love is possession, not protection.
Standalone with a psychologically conclusive HEA—where recovery doesn’t mean freedom, and love is something she must relearn to survive.
Genre: New Adult Romance
