1. LIMERENCE by H.C. Dolores
SYNOPSIS
A dead body. A dark secret. And a sociopath who can’t decide whether he’d rather kill me or kiss me.
Welcome to Lionswood Prep, the world’s most elite boarding school. Here, old money reigns supreme, and if you can’t flaunt your weight in designer labels, you’d better get used to sitting alone. As a poor scholarship student, I know these rules better than anyone. I’ve perfected the art of pretending I don’t envy my classmates’ limitless wealth just as well as I’ve mastered blending into the background.
Until the school’s only other scholarship student takes a tumble from the fifth floor.
Mickey Mabel’s death is ruled a suicide, but I have my doubts. The only thing I am certain of is that Lionswood’s golden boy, Adrian Ellis, is somehow involved. It’s a wild suspicion, considering Adrian is not just Lionswood’s richest student... but also one of the nicest. He’s the kind of guy who buys out the bake sale and caters lunch for a grieving student body... surely, he can’t be a murderer, can he?
Most of my classmates worship the ground he walks on, but I’ve seen enough darkness to sense that there’s more than a little of it lurking beneath that pretty smile of his.
I shouldn’t get involved, but for the first time in nearly four years, I’m done sticking to the shadows. Except, exposing Adrian doesn’t quite go to plan, and now, he has his sights set on me. He’s determined to turn senior year into a game of cat-and-mouse, one where I’m not sure if his end goal is to kill me or possess me. And the longer we play, the less certain I am that I want to escape his snare. After all, I’ve got a few dark secrets of my own.
2. REDAMANCY by H.C. Dolores
SYNOPSIS
A new city. A new life. And a sociopath determined to take back what’s his.
Ten years ago, Adrian Ellis vowed to hunt me down and claim me like a prize, but I haven’t heard a word since.
Now I’m thriving in New York City—with a blossoming art career, a fearless roommate-turned-best-friend intent to push me out of my comfort zone, and a true golden boy who has no idea how deep my darkness runs.
But just as I’m ready to move on, Adrian reappears in my city and my life. He swears he isn’t here for me, but as the seams of my carefully stitched life begin to fray, all signs point back to him—and I suspect he’s been pulling the strings longer than I’ve known.
I might’ve started this game a decade ago, but Adrian plans to finish it—and the stakes are higher than ever. He wants my life, my name, and me. Forever.
But we aren’t the only players on the board, and there are threats bigger than Adrian lurking in the shadows. If I’m going to survive this game, I’ll need to embrace every part of the darkness I thought I left at Lionswood. Good thing I’m not interested in playing fair.
