Bound by the Devil (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781666417784)

Sarah always believed Malik was meant to be hers...

Not just because of love, but because of what being with him meant. After years of being hidden, unacknowledged, and starved for the validation she craved, Malik offered her something she refused to lose: visibility, status, and the image of the life she'd always imagined for herself. With him, she finally felt seen. Chosen. Worthy.

So when he returned, promising forever, even after she walked away, Sarah didn't hesitate. She opened her door, her heart, and her home. She asked him move in. She let herself believe she had finally won the future she'd been fighting for.

But Malik's affection comes with a price.

Wedding plans stall. His moods shift without warning. His absences stretch longer each time. And slowly, painfully, Sarah begins to sense a truth she doesn't want to face... that Malik is holding on to more than he admits, taking what he needs from places he refuses to name, and giving her only enough to keep her hoping.

Still, Sarah pushes forward, determined to protect the future she's built in her mind. The life. The attention. The image. The man she's convinced is hers. She clings to the version of Malik she fell for, even as the cracks beneath the surface widen and the secrets he carries become harder to ignore.

As the wedding day approaches, Sarah finds herself fighting not just for a relationship, but for the identity she's tied to it, and for the dangerous hope that she can make him choose her completely.

A gripping companion to Devil at My Side, Bound by the Devil reveals the other side of the story: a woman navigating love built on half-truths, ambition, and the unraveling illusion of a future she can no longer control.
