The Red Room swallowed sound like it was designed for secrets.”
“The notebook is punishment. This is management.”
Ryder thought Jace’s control ended in the Red Room.
He was wrong.
Because punishment is one thing. A system is another.
As Jace pulls Ryder deeper into a world of rules, structure, and consequence, Theo, Destiny, and Drew become reminders that Ryder still has a life outside of him — one Jace may not be willing to share. And by the time Ryder realizes just how far Jace plans to go, he is already in too deep.
The Red Room is Book 4 in The Deep End, a dark MM college romance series packed with obsession, control, emotional intensity, and serial cliffhangers.
