Just like his cult following enrapt by his brutality and beauty, he's completely unhinged. And he's obsessed with me. So when Ghost turns himself in and demands to speak to me, I'm forced to confront the beautiful monster sitting across the glass. And the one inside - the one lurking in my own fractured soul. Ghost's rapt attention brings goosebumps to my skin and sends chills down my spine. I choose to believe my reaction is based in fear. When I'm alone in bed, it's harder to convince myself. As boundaries fade and the line between doctor and patient blurs, I'm faced with a question: What am I willing to pay to unveil the truth about my haunted past? Because to Ghost, the price is me. All of me. DEPRAVED DEVOTION is Book 1 in the Villains & Vices duet.
