Crimson Confessions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798248911325)

The story introduces Astrid, a woman who has just shattered the "gilded cage" of a four-year, abusive marriage, seeking refuge and anonymity in the windswept town of Seahaven. Her scarred soul finds a temporary balm in the town's quiet shadows. Meanwhile, Axel, the town's brooding priest, attempts to atone for a monstrous past filled with torture and control, using his church as a fragile fortress against his dormant, bloodthirsty nature.

His penance is shattered the moment Astrid walks into his life, a beacon of vulnerability and pain he instantly recognizes. Their connection is immediate and dangerous-a forbidden spark between two broken souls. Axel, feeling an overwhelming, possessive hunger, begins to fall terrifyingly in love, abandoning his piety to stalk her like a shadow. However, Seahaven's peace is an illusion, as the specters of both their violent pasts-Astrid's a relentless mob boss, Axel's a trail of blood-begin to stir. Facing these resurfacing threats, Axel feels his sacred vows fraying, his beast demanding release. To protect Astrid, his "starlight," he decides to shed his priestly guise, abandon his penance, and fully embrace the monster he once was, knowing the taste of blood will be all too familiar.
