Sloane’s life was a waking nightmare. Caught between a mother’s toxic silence and a stepfather’s predatory hands, she was drowning in a sea of darkness—until her stepbrother, Oliver, reached into the abyss. He was the hero who carried her toward the light, a protector with fragile wings she leaned on until she nearly broke him. Believing she was his ruin, Sloane fled to set him free. She never looked back long enough to see the truth: she wasn't his burden, she was his heartbeat.
