Madness of the Moon by Marina Simcoe

I met him when I was fourteen. Years have passed. My memories have faded, and Lero’s image in my mind has become barely an apparition from the past—beautiful and intriguing, but hardly real.
Until I see him again. Only this time, I’m no longer a teenager. I’m a real estate agent hoping to sell an exquisite property—a private island in the Bahamas—to one of my company’s most important clients.
I just never knew that the client would be him. Now, Lero is no longer just a memory. He is a man of flesh and blood. I am a grown woman, too, and my reaction to him is so much more intense.
When I finally find out what he is, secrets come crashing down, leading to astonishing and terrifying discoveries. I learn he’s been held captive and tortured by people he wouldn’t talk to me about. He thinks he is protecting me and my peaceful life. What he doesn’t realize is that there is no life for me without him, anymore.
The Moon may turn him into a monster and make him do terrible things, but I’m Stella, his morning star.

I must find a way to lead him back into the light.
