FORBIDDEN HEARTS

HIS DARK OBSESSION

Some echoes linger longer than we expect. In the spaces he left behind, I find myself walking slowly, tracing the shapes of what wasn’t said, and wondering if I’ll ever learn to carry the weight without faltering.

About the Book

She wanted a fresh start.

He wanted control.

Neither expected obsession.

After a scandal shatters her old life, Selena Reyes transfers to Ridgeview University, determined to disappear. No drama, no attention, no mistakes. Then she meets Damon Cross, rich, arrogant, and dangerously magnetic.

He’s everything she swore to avoid… but Damon doesn’t play by anyone’s rules.

What starts as hostility turns into a slow, forbidden pull, one that blurs every line between hate and desire.

But Damon has secrets, ones tied to Selena’s past, the kind that can destroy everything she’s trying to rebuild.

And when truth turns into betrayal, love becomes the most dangerous game of all.

How far will she go for the one person she should’ve stayed away from?

? His Dark Obsession is a steamy bad boy college romance filled with enemies-to-lovers tension, emotional depth, and the slow-burn chaos fans of Penelope Douglas, Elle Kennedy, and Lauren Asher can’t resist.

This is Book One in the Forbidden Hearts series: a story about love, guilt, and the thin line between desire and destruction.

About the Author

ISRAEL BLAKE

Israel Blake writes introspective, emotionally layered fiction that explores the quiet spaces between people, where longing, silence, and self-discovery live. His stories often wander through halls of memory, corridors of the heart, and the subtle rhythms of everyday life that go unnoticed until someone stops to listen.

Inspired by the hidden poetry in ordinary moments, Israel seeks to capture the small, quiet connections that shape us, fleeting glances, whispered confessions, and the unspoken truths we carry within.

When not writing, Israel collects forgotten notebooks, listens to the rain, and builds fictional schools where hearts learn to speak. He lives surrounded by books, sketches, and the soft hum of the city, always searching for the next story that lingers in the spaces between words.
