THE DATING PROTOCOL
He only wanted to get better.
She perfected him.
Until he forgot who he was without her.
Alex is twenty-two.
Kind. Intelligent. Harmless.
The type who apologizes after a kiss.
Then Victoria knocks on his door.
What starts as flirtation turns into an experiment.
What looks like support is training.
What sounds like intimacy is control.
For two years, she optimizes him.
Photos.
Messages.
Dates.
Touch.
He learns to read women like profiles.
He learns to create tension.
He learns to deliver results.
He gets better.
Much better.
And piece by piece, he loses what once made him real.
The Dating Protocol is not a love story.
It's a dismantling.
Raw.
Precise.
Uncomfortably close.
A novel about power.
About manipulation.
About two people who keep playing a game until neither of them remembers how to stop.
A psychological thriller disguised as a romance.
Two perspectives tearing each other apart.
An antagonist you admire while she destroys everything.
A love story that might not be one.
Or maybe the most honest one of all.
This book is for you if you prefer stories that don't romanticize.
If psychological dynamics interest you more than hearts and happy endings.
If you want to know what happens when love turns into strategy.
What is a Cremabook?
Bold. Intense. Wholehearted.
Cremabooks are like a perfect espresso: short, strong, and unforgettable.
Written for people who don't have much time—but still want to feel everything.
No filler.
No detours.
Just the essence.
Take a look behind the protocol.
And discover what happens when self-improvement becomes self-erasure.
