Selina James-Kyle

She survived every woman's worst nightmare. Now the man she loves may be the monster she escaped. Emma built her life on discipline, strength, and control. A black belt. A successful writer. A woman who never lets anyone get too close. Then she meets Leo - charming, patient, dangerously easy to trust. For the first time in years, Emma lets her guard down. But when a forgotten detail from her childhood suddenly resurfaces, desire turns to terror.
Because the face she's fallen for may belong to the predator who nearly destroyed her life. Dark, emotional, and impossible to put down, 5 O'Clock Shadow is a gripping psychological romance about trauma, trust, obsession, and the thin line between love and fear.
