She survived the nightmare. Now she has to survive the rescue.
Mavis is trapped in a world that smells of old panic and broken promises. After surviving an ordeal that taught her body to treat every touch as a trap, she only wants to disappear. She wants to be held without being handled, and she wants to escape the past that keeps catching up to her. But when the danger at the edge of town moves closer, her survival depends on trusting the one man who has the power to shatter her completely.
Alice is a man built on restraint and lethal protective instincts. He has been trained by people who don't care about consent, making him terrifyingly good at navigating danger-and terrified of becoming the threat himself. He's ready to be her shield against the shadows hunting her, but he refuses to take her choices away.
To survive the night, they must live by one strict rule: When she says slow, they go slow. When she says stop, he stops. No arguments. No exceptions.
But as the locks click and the threats close in, the static under Mavis's skin turns into a dangerous attraction. Can a trauma-aware hero teach her body that safety is real before the past breaks down the door? Or will his protection become just another golden cage?
Featuring a deeply protective, fierce hero and a trauma-surviving heroine, One Rule to Break is a gripping, high-stakes romantic suspense novel that explores the razor-thin line between danger, desire, and ultimate trust.
