Love Written in the Margins : When Her Stalker Knows Every Secrets
Mira, you believe that you are invisible. However, I notice you. I've seen you all along."
Three months ago, Mira Holloway's life was completely upended when her fiancé publicly broke up with her at their engagement party—for her own sister. She's barely making ends meet at her inherited bookstore, hiding from the public behind piles of used books, humiliated and destitute after her ex depleted their joint account.
The notes then start.
Her skin prickles when she sees personal notes in the margins of books that have been donated, penned in exquisite handwriting. They explain her coffee regimen in the morning. Her tendency of conversing with books. The nightmare that awakens her at three in the morning. Things that nobody could possibly know.
I feel the softness beneath your shell of loneliness. Mira, the world doesn't deserve you. However, I do.
Signed: Always yours.
"The blue mug will break today" is how the notes begin to foretell her day before it actually occurs. Do not be scared. I'll deliver another one to you. "Within her, fear and fascination clash. There is a viewer. Someone is all-knowing.
Three guys are found throughout her hunt, and they all have secrets that might ruin her:
The enigmatic billionaire who recently moved into the apartment across the street is Kieran Thorne. He observes her through his window with an intensity that should frighten her; he is menacing, cold, and controlling. However, the first thing he says to her when he does talk is, "You're safe now." I promise not to let anyone harm you once more."
Her adorable delivery driver, Adrian Cole, has a devastating smile and easy access to all the books that are donated to her store. He is aware of her preferences, schedule, and anxieties. And all of a sudden, he's everywhere, showing up just when she needs to be saved.
Her childhood best friend, Ethan Walsh, abruptly disappeared eight years ago and recently returned to town in an attempt to "make things right." He is the only one who truly knows her, including the trauma she has never shared with anyone.
The notes are being written by one of them. Perhaps one of them is attempting to murder her. And one of them may be the only one who can rescue her from a plot that transcends obsession and involves a long-kept secret that her deceased mother carried with her.
Because Mira is not merely being observed. They are pursuing her. Furthermore, the author of Yours, Always" is not her stalker.
He is her guardian. And in order to protect her, he will set the globe on fire.
