Somewhere in the Dark

She's hated him for three years. He's never bothered to notice—until now.

When Mara Cole is forced to share a remote research station with Declan Harte, the insufferably brilliant colleague who dismantled her career with a single published critique, survival feels less certain than it did before the blizzard locked them in. Declan is arrogant, razor-tongued, and maddening in the particular way that only someone deeply competent can be. Mara knows exactly who he is.

Except the man she meets in the long, silent hours of a power outage doesn't match the monster she's spent years resenting.

Stripped of fluorescent lighting and professional armor, something shifts between them—slow, dangerous, impossible to name. Their arguments still draw blood, their disagreements still ignite, but somewhere in the dark, Mara discovers that the line between hatred and wanting can be terrifyingly thin. And Declan, for all his careful walls, seems to be learning the same lesson.

The problem with letting your enemy see your softness is that you can never take it back.

*Somewhere in the Dark* is a slow-burn romance about two people who built their identities around opposing each other—and what happens when the darkness forces them to look closer. Because sometimes the person you've been fighting hardest isn't your enemy.

Sometimes they're the only one who ever truly saw you.
