Zainab Sambo

Beth’s world shatters when she’s taken by the man everyone calls a monster. Rogue is cold, ruthless, and broken in ways she can’t yet understand. But the longer she’s trapped in his shadow, the more cracks she sees in his armor—and the more her fear starts to burn into something she can’t name. Desire. Defiance. Dangerous tenderness. He wants to own her; she wants to survive him. Yet somewhere between hatred and longing, their hearts rewrite the rules. Now Beth must decide: escape the man who stole her freedom, or stay with the one who taught her what it means to truly feel alive.
