Haunting Adeline
by H.D. Carlton
Why Read This?The one-sentence sell. What do you get for showing up to this book, even when it's hard?
You'll experience the intense, taboo thrill of a morally gray obsession that pushes boundaries.
Synopsis
The Manipulator I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me. I will make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh. But my words don't affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave. He's always there, watching and waiting. And I can never look away. Not when I want him to come closer. The Shadow I didn't mean to fall in love. But now that I have, I can't stay away. I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves. The way she undresses... I'll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine. And once she is, I'll never let her go. Not even when she begs me to.
