Carnal Obsession: An Insidious Obsession Standalone

About this book

Romi Lutton is spiraling. Struggling to process a devastating loss, she isolates herself in a haze of self-destructive behavior until her friends intervene, forcing her to find a new roommate. The last person she expects to land on her doorstep is the mysterious stranger from her recent one-night stand. He claims to be a doctor, but his presence in her life feels far more calculated and dangerous than a simple medical career would suggest. Dante, an ambitious and ruthless man seeking to secure his position as second-in-command of the Italian Mafia, has his own agenda. He needs to undermine his brother, and moving in with his brother’s fiancée’s best friend is the perfect tactical maneuver to infiltrate his target’s inner circle. What begins as a cold, manipulative scheme to gain leverage quickly turns into a volatile, high-stakes game of cat and mouse. Utilizing the forced proximity and enemies-to-lovers tropes, this dark romance follows two unhinged, headstrong characters as they navigate their mutual obsession. As the lines between revenge and genuine desire blur, Dante finds himself becoming an unexpected, possessive anchor for Romi’s grief. In a world of lethal secrets and emotional wreckage, they discover that their shared darkness might be exactly what the other needs to survive.
