Good Hurt, Splinter: A Dark College Romance (Book 2) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798998523946)

Good Hurt is an intense, dark college romance series in which a young woman struggles to overcome her addiction to pain and past lovers turn deadly. The three-book series delves into the magnetic but dangerous pull of a toxic relationship where love and obsession blur and pleasure and pain are bound tightly together. The second book of the series follows Addison on a path of self-discovery as she's determined to move on from her toxic ex.

At its heart is Addison Blaise, a fiercely independent but emotionally scarred woman desperate to escape her past trauma. She never wanted the pain, but she needed it all the same.

Asher, the best friend of Addison's older brother, is captivating and powerful, with an aura that demands attention and obedience. A possessive alpha with a dark edge, Asher's obsession with Addison borders on consuming, and Addison can feel the thrill of surrendering to a man who could either save her or destroy her.

Addison is torn between the addictive allure of Asher's dominance and the awareness that his love may come at too high a price. She craves the intensity and security he brings, even when it crosses into darkness. Theirs is a relationship fueled by raw emotions and undeniable chemistry, but the line between love and control, pleasure and pain, begins to disappear.

This three-book series unflinchingly explores the highs and lows of a toxic romance, where desire turns obsessive and trust gives way to fear. With every page, readers are drawn deeper into Addison and Asher's world-a place where surrender feels dangerous, love feels cruel, and breaking free might be the hardest choice of all. This is a dark, gripping story about the risks of passion and the fine line between ecstasy and devastation.

Will Addison's on-again, off-again relationship with Asher finally come to a head? Will she resolve her inner demons and find peace? Will she see the danger lurking in the shadows before it's too late?

As the series spirals deeper into a love that's as destructive as it is seductive, Addison Blaise wonders what will finally bring her salvation. But perhaps the better question is not what, but who?
