I Only Ever Wanted You

She loved him completely.

She gave herself without reservation; her desire, her devotion, her trust. And he, calm, measured, endlessly articulate, did not love her in return. Not truly.

He needed her obsession, craved her pursuit, and thrived on the devotion that bound her to him. He provoked, enticed, and withdrew, crafting a world where she became the woman who could not leave, the one everyone else quietly judged. And yet, in private, he rewarded her surrender, feeding the illusion that he cared.

In a dance of intimacy and manipulation, love and control blur. She believes this is a connection. She waits for him to return; he waits for her to need him. Every touch, every glance, every carefully chosen word is a thread in the web that's been spun. When the chase ends, when she finally steps away, he discovers the one thing he cannot endure: irrelevance. And then, at last, the true nature of his devotion emerges; devastating and  unrelenting.

I Only Ever Wanted You is a darkly erotic, psychologically intense romance about obsession, control, and the dangerous ways desire can intertwine with power. It is a story of love mistaken for ownership, devotion stretched too far, and the devastating cost of wanting someone completely, when they never wanted you in return.
