À l'Ombre de nos Désirs Éliane pense avoir trouvé l'opportunité de sa vie lorsqu'elle est engagée comme archiviste personnelle par Kaelan, un magnat de l'industrie aussi fascinant que redouté. Sa mission : classer des documents anciens dans son manoir isolé. Le poste est trop bien payé pour être refusé. Mais très vite, elle comprend que le contrat qu'elle a signé va bien au-delà d'un simple emploi. C'est un pacte avec le diable. Kaelan ne veut pas seulement de ses compétences ; il la veut, elle. Tout entière. L'isolement du manoir devient sa prison dorée. Kaelan use d'un jeu pervers de séduction, de manipulation et de cruauté psychologique pour briser ses défenses. Il alterne entre une tendresse envoûtante et une froideur calculée, la poussant au bord du gouffre.
