Leave the Curtain Open: A Dark Stalker Romance

She left the curtain open. He never stopped watching.

Sadie Calloway moves into a third-floor walkup with big windows and no curtains. Fresh start. New city. The kind of quiet that's supposed to feel like freedom.

It doesn't.

The man in the penthouse across the street knows her coffee order. Her favorite album. The scar on her left wrist. He knows these things because he's been studying her for three years—since the day he saw her photograph on a real estate listing and something inside him came apart and did not go back together.

Julian Voss bought her building. Controlled her rent. Sent her the photos that destroyed her relationship. Arranged the job offer that moved her best friend across the country. He dismantled her life piece by piece until he was the only one left standing in it.

Then he sat down across from her at a coffee shop and pretended they'd never met.

She fell for him anyway. Hard. Fast. The way you fall when someone finally sees you after years of being invisible.

Then she found the telescope. The wall of photographs. Three years of journals in handwriting steadier than her heartbeat.

She should call the police.

She doesn't.

And that's the part she can't explain—not to anyone, not even to herself.

A dark stalker romance with explicit content, obsessive love, and morally gray everything. For readers 18+ who don't need their love stories to be safe.
