When Vivienne leaves her small town for a prestigious college in Boston, she's ready to embrace freedom, independence, and a life away from her overprotective older brother, Dorian. But Dorian has other plans. For years, Dorian has lived with a secret obsession—an all-consuming love for his little sister that goes far beyond what is acceptable. When Vivi moves hundreds of miles away, his fragile control snaps. Unable to let her go, he takes drastic action, abducting her and whisking her away to a secluded ranch he's been preparing for years. Trapped in the middle of nowhere, Vivi is torn between fury and confusion. Dorian insists it's for her own safety—that no one will ever love or protect her the way he does. But as days turn into weeks, the lines between protector and captor, brother and lover, begin to blur. In the suffocating intimacy of the ranch, dark desires awaken, and forbidden emotions take root. Vivi must confront the truth about her brother's obsession—and her own feelings—before she's completely consumed by the man who stole her away. A dark, forbidden tale of obsession, control, and the unbreakable bonds of family.
