They tell you that love moves mountains, but they never mention that those mountains usually fall on top of you.

About the author
Esmerelda norman
Esmerelda Norman writes the kind of stories that keep you up long past your bedtime. With a deep fascination for the messy intersection of love and lawlessness, she specializes in high-stakes romance, gritty crime, and psychological thrillers.
Esmerelda believes that the most interesting love stories aren't found in fairytales, but in the trenches—where characters have to fight through secrets, scars, and systemic odds just to stay together. Her writing is known for its "page-turner" pace and its refusal to shy away from the darker side of devotion.
