Hunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton

Cat and Mouse Duet · Book 2 of 2

If she were to die... the world would die with her.

Adeline Reilly expected ghosts, not captivity in a house used to groom women for the elite. Now she must fight to survive - and Zade, relentless and obsessive, will tear the world apart to bring her home.

Together they must face their pasts, their pain, and the very real danger pursuing them. The hunt ends here. The love story never will.
