In the shadows between words, he waits. Watching.

Mara Jennings thought her biggest problem was her stalled writing career and a manuscript no one wants. Until objects in her apartment start moving on their own. Until a mysterious fountain pen appears from nowhere, unleashing words she never knew she had inside her.

Someone is watching Mara's every move. Someone who knows her deepest fears, her most private thoughts. Someone who's been orchestrating her isolation, piece by calculated piece.

As Mara's world shrinks and her suspicions grow, she can't shake the feeling that the darkness watching her might be exactly what she needs—even as it threatens to consume her completely.

A chilling dark romance novella featuring obsession, surveillance, and the dangerous allure of being truly seen. Written Obsession: Before is the prologue to Ethan and Mara's full story—where possession meets protection, and the line between stalker and savior blurs beyond recognition.
