About this audiobook
He has watched her for fourteen months. She has never once seen his face.
Gabriel Sloane is the youngest tenured professor in Coldridge's Gothic Literature department, and every Wednesday he parks across from Margot Vance's apartment and waits for her light to come on. He knows her route home, her coffee order, the notes he wrote in her library books two years before she enrolled. He isn't sorry.
Margot is a PhD candidate writing on obsessive love in the Gothic novel. She built a small, unseen life because being invisible felt like being safe. She doesn't know the marginalia was written for her. She doesn't know he's in the parking lot tonight.
When she learns how long he's been watching, the only question left is what she does with it.
Book 1 of The Coldridge Trilogy. A standalone dark academia romance with a guaranteed HEA. For readers of H.D. Carlton and Penelope Douglas.
CW: explicit content, stalking. No cheating, no cliffhanger, guaranteed HEA.
