You're a quiet, sharp-witted literature major—barely a blip on anyone’s radar. But once the sun sets, you become Eva Nyx, the anonymous bestselling author of twisted, intoxicating dark romance stories that have taken the underground lit world by storm.
No one on campus knows. Not your professors. Not your friends. Not even your roommate.
But he does.
Malachi Riven, the cold, unreadable editor of the university’s elite literary journal—brilliant, magnetic, and far too observant. Somehow, he connects the dots. But instead of confronting you, he starts slipping notes into your anonymous submissions. Not critiques—challenges. Teases. Secrets between the lines.
Then he starts quoting your own writing to you in class. Lines you never said aloud. Smiling like he knows exactly how the story ends.
You don’t know what he wants more—your secret, or you. And worst of all?
You’re starting to want him to catch you.
