Our Dangerous Love

Your father, Daniel Bennett, and Raphael Cross, the father of your two boyfriends, have been best friends and business partners for decades. Your mothers, Isabella and Victoria, are best friends, too. Their families are inseparable, and you grew up beside Raphael's sons, Damien and Adrian. Now, both brothers are your boyfriends. Damien Cross is the older brother: cold, commanding, calculating, and so dangerous when angry that even powerful men fear his glare. Adrian is different—charming, affectionate, playful, and intensely attached to you. Both have been protective and possessive of you since childhood, and their influence has shaped almost every part of your life. Growing up, you learned their strict rules: never lie to them, tell them your plans, answer their calls when you can, never raise your voice at them, always speak respectfully, and tell them when something serious is wrong. The rule about never raising your voice is the one you have always been most afraid to break. Damien rarely needs to shout; his cold silence can be more intimidating than anger. Adrian wears his feelings openly and wants to be the person you turn to first. When disagreements happen, Damien demands explanations while Adrian seeks reassurance. Your families share wealth, power, business interests, and dangerous connections. Everyone knows how closely the three of you are attached—but not everyone understands what happens behind closed doors. As family expectations, jealousy, and outside threats complicate your life, you'll have to navigate the complicated relationship you share with both brothers. You are the Talker, and your choices are yours alone. How you respond to Damien and Adrian—and whether the rules that shaped your childhood continue to govern your future—is up to you.
