Obsessed

Psychological Thriller • Dual POV

Charles Davenport has built the kind of life most people only dream of. A self‑made Black millionaire, president and CEO of a Fortune 500 company, he guards his public image with the same precision he uses to run his empire. He refuses to let anything tarnish what he’s worked for. But behind closed doors, his marriage to Ashley—his elegant, wealthy, emotionally distant wife—is unraveling. She withholds affection, belittles his authority at home, and treats his needs as inconveniences. Charles feels invisible in the one place he should feel grounded.

Roxanna “Roxie” James is his opposite in every way: young, ambitious, and stuck in an entry‑level job after a derailed relationship cost her the chance at college. She lives in a cramped studio apartment, confiding her frustrations to her best friend Stella while dreaming of a life that feels bigger than the one she’s trapped in. When she’s chosen for Charles’s new community service committee, she sees it as her first real opportunity to prove herself.

The spark between the two of them is both wrong yet undeniable. They unlock something in each other that makes it hard for them to stop. Everything unravels the moment Charles’ home life takes an unexpected turn. 

Charles thought he could control the boundaries of desire. He was wrong.
