Kate has always been good at running—running from the truth, from her desires, and most of all, from the dangerous pull she feels toward the one man she can never have. Branwell is everything she shouldn’t want. Her boss. Cold. Controlled. Untouchable. And yet, behind his sharp gaze lies something darker—something that watches her a little too closely… something that knows her better than she knows herself. What starts as an unexpected connection quickly spirals into a tension neither of them can ignore. Every glance lingers too long. Every touch burns deeper than it should. And every boundary Kate tries to draw, Branwell seems determined to cross. But Branwell isn’t just hiding desire—he’s hiding secrets. Dangerous ones. And the closer Kate gets to him, the more she realizes this isn’t just about love… it’s about obsession, control, and a past that refuses to stay buried. Now, caught between what she fears and what she craves, Kate must decide— walk away before it consumes her… —or surrender to a love that could destroy her.Kate has always been good at running—running from the truth, from her desires, and most of all, from the dangerous pull she feels toward the one man she can never have.
