The Maddest Obsession

Gianna harbors a deep fear of the darkness that surrounds her, while Christian dominates and thrives within it. Her attire feels constricting, her heels too high, her laughter too boisterous, and her manners far from refined. She often mixes up common sayings, but few realize that this flamboyant exterior serves as a glittering disguise, concealing her battles with panic attacks, one episode at a time. Gianna's facade remains impenetrable to most, until he enters the picture.

To the world, he appears as the epitome of morality, a dedicated special agent committed to upholding the law. However, within the depths of New York's underworld, he is known as a hustler and a killer, with a heart as cold as the ice in his chest. Christian Allister has steadfastly adhered to the life plan he crafted during his youth, even during his time spent in a frigid, damp cell. Guided by a love for order and an affinity for the number three, he has never been tempted to deviate from his chosen path. But as they say, one should never say never...

Their lives intersect on a winter night, and she despises him for his icy demeanor, arrogance, and keen perception. However, as the years pass and their interactions consist of exchanging insults about each other's appearance and intelligence, she finds herself living for their encounters. Christian, on the other hand, had never anticipated Gianna in his carefully constructed plans. She is chaos personified, completely opposite to his usual type, and she's married. Yet, none of these obstacles can prevent his eyes from following her every move. Unbeknownst to her, she has become his source of frustration, fascination, and his most maddening obsession. "The Maddest Obsession" by Danielle Lori delves into these captivating dynamics.
