Sticks & Serpents

She thought she escaped him. She was wrong.

Holly Walker came back to Crestwood for one reason—to move on.

New semester. New life. A safe guy who doesn't come with chaos attached.

Logan Hartley is everything she should want. Steady. Normal. Safe.

Everything Damien Sinclaire is not.

But safe doesn't mean protected.

Because Damien never let her go.

Not when she left. Not when she blocked him. Not even when she chose someone else.

And now that she's back?

He's watching.

Every move. Every text. Every smile she gives to another man.

When Logan gets too close, Damien makes one thing very clear—Holly was never his past.

She's his.

What starts as tension turns into something far more dangerous when the lines between protection and possession blur beyond recognition.

Because Damien doesn't want her fear.

He wants her surrender.

And this time?

There's no walking away.
