Hers To Surrender

Some call it obsession. To him, it’s devotion—and he’ll cross every line to keep her.

NATHANIEL Caldwell is still waiting for an answer. The one that could change everything…or ruin what’s left. And when it comes to Olivia, patience is its own form of purgatory—worn thin by wanting too much, too soon.
He’s learned the cost of chaos the hard way, and has since committed himself to outpacing uncertainty—convinced that if he plans enough, holds on tightly enough, he can safeguard what matters…and nothing has mattered more than her. Yet, the closer he holds her, the more terrified he becomes of losing her.
After all, this was never about control.
It’s instinct. A need carved out by grief, shaped into the only version of love he understands. Or so he tells himself.
Because he’s already gone too far, and he knows it.

OLIVIA Bennett never expected to fall this hard. And now that she’s seen the cracks he hides beneath all that polish, her heart aches for him in ways that she’s never ached for anyone.
But she’s starting to realize that choosing Nathaniel means submitting to something far more consuming than she ever imagined. He’s slipped past every defense she’s built, wants her in ways that defy reason, and asks for nothing less than everything.
She’s not sure she’s built to withstand a force like him.
The way he watches. The way he follows. The way he’ll never let her go.
Will she still call it love when it demands all that she is?
