We survived the fall. Now we have to survive each other.

I’d known both brothers my entire life. Owen was kind, safe—the obvious choice. Knox was cruel, reckless, and everything I should have stayed away from.

I chose Owen.

But when a rollercoaster accident changes everything in a matter of seconds, I’m left with only the brother I was never supposed to want.

Now Knox and I are bound by tragedy, guilt, and a connection that feels both inevitable and wrong. Everyone thinks we’re leaning on each other to heal. They don’t know about the thoughts I had in those final moments. The secrets we discovered after. The way Knox looks at me like he’s been waiting for this his entire life.

They don’t know that somewhere between the grief and the accusations, something darker emerged.

Something that makes us seek each other out in the middle of the night.

Something that makes us crave the pain as much as the comfort.

Something that should scare us both.

They say trauma changes you. What they don’t tell you is that sometimes it just reveals who you were all along.

Knox was always the wrong choice. Maybe that’s exactly why I can’t let him go.

Book 1 of a Duet about forbidden love, trauma bonding, and the thin line between healing and destruction. This is a dark romance featuring morally gray characters, toxic relationship dynamics, and mature themes.
