She Drugged Him First, He Staged the Whole Thing

Zoe has spent years secretly in love with Ethan, the man who raised her as his own — sneaking into his room at midnight, close enough to feel his warmth, never daring to go further. When Ethan announces he is pursuing a woman for marriage, Zoe's careful restraint begins to crack, and the obsession she has hidden so well threatens to consume everything. Desperate and jealous beyond reason, she finally crosses a line she can never take back — only to discover that Ethan had seen her coming all along. A dark, intoxicating romance about two people who loved each other in secret, and the elaborate lengths one of them went to in order to make that love impossible to deny.
