The Catalyst

By Zepphora .

I thought when I moved to Grove Hill that it was just a sleepy town. Nothing ever happens in small communities, but I was so wrong.

I was forced into a relationship with a man I never wanted, but it's just a waiting game until he eventually screws up and breaks the rules. Then, I'll be free to be with who I want and I know how wrong it is for me to want them.

Yes, them.

Oliver Doyle, otherwise known as the town psychopath, has eyes that I could only describe as dead, but he was the one who held me during my lowest low.

Then, there's Martin Gray, my forced boyfriend's worst enemy. I hated him with a passion, but now I yearn for the comfort he brings me.

I just want the chaos to end, but in Grove Hill, nothing ever goes my way.

The Catalyst is the first book in the When You Leave duet, set in the Bastards of Grove Hill world. It is a MFM dark romance with a long list of triggers. All warning can be found on the author's website. Readers discretion is advised.
