Distortion: A Dark Contemporary Romance (Den of Deception)

DAISY They called me broken. Dangerous. At thirteen, I was sent to a facility; their perfect patient. Now? I'm back after ten years, and the notes appearing in my room suggest my mother's death wasn't the accident everyone claims.

Living under my stepbrother's roof should be simple. Keep my head down. Start fresh. But Shade isn't the boy who once made my darkness bearable - he's a ruthless man with dangerous friends and sinister secrets.

They want me gone. Broken. Sent back to the facility that stripped me of everything but my brilliant mind. They'll use every weapon in their arsenal - cruelty, seduction, manipulation - to make me crumble.

What they don't realize? A decade in chains taught me patience. And the girl they're trying to destroy might be the key to their own undoing.

SHADE I never expected my stepsister to return. Now she's living in my house, threatening everything my friends and I have planned. She's a liability. A weakness. A temptation none of us can resist.

Our mission is simple: destroy her. Send her back. But her genius rivals ours, and her darkness? It's a song we're all too familiar with.

And the girl we're meant to break … is quickly becoming the obsession we can't escape.
