First Place Winner — 2026 Winter Pencraft Award (Fiction: Drama)
A dark, tragic love story of obsession, transformation, and the cost of becoming something inhuman.
Ben Hale survived the war.
He wasn’t supposed to become it.
When he returns home broken, Eden is the one who pulls him back from the edge—steady, patient, and unafraid of the darkness creeping beneath his skin.
Until the night he almost loses control.
Fear drives her away.
Love pulls her back.
And the choice she makes to protect herself binds her to a future neither of them can escape.
But Ben is changing.
What’s taking hold inside him isn’t human.
It hungers. It sharpens. It demands more.
When he’s offered a way to survive—to become stronger, faster, untouchable—he takes it.
All it will cost… is the last piece of his humanity.
By the time the truth surfaces, it’s already too late.
Because love doesn’t save him.
It twists. It consumes.
And in the end, it demands something far worse than letting go.
A dark, emotionally devastating story of love, guilt, and irreversible transformation—where obsession replaces healing, and mercy becomes murder.
This is not a traditional romance. No HEA.
Perfect for readers who love:
