A book editor's quiet life is turned upside down when she unwittingly catches the attention of a dangerous man. Can she survive his obsession? If I had a heart, it would have stopped the moment I first saw Ava. There's something inside of her that calls to me, a melancholy that hides behind her eyes. It tempts me, asking, are you broken, too? And yes, I am broken. She's been alone for so long, haunted by the ghosts of her past. I'll free her from them. I'll break through the cage that she's built around her gentle heart. Then, I'll show her the freedom of a new cage - mine. A good man would let her go, keep her safe from the dangers of my profession. But I'm not a good man. I'm a monster, a killer. Soon, I'll have her. My little songbird will sing for me. Until then, I'll remain in the shadows. Author's Note: The Songbird's Shadow is a standalone dual POV dark romance novel. It includes open-door spice as well as other mature themes and is only suitable for an adult audience. For a full list of content warnings, please check the author's website.
