A Dark Mystery Romance INTENSE. GRIPPING. DARK. A WEB OF LUST, DARK LOVE, AND BETRAYAL. What do you do when a force bigger than you wrecks your life, pulling you into a warped reality where nothing is what it seems? "I've never read a storyline like that."~ Amazon Reviewer At twenty-five, Tess Sandoval seemingly lives the perfect life. Married to a busy banker, she works from home doing what she loves the most–– editing books––while struggling with a hyperactive mind, heightened perception, and a vivid imagination. Then, one day a mysterious man catches her eye, a different reality kicking in. She quickly learns the ravishing billionaire is not the product of her imagination, he's not an illusion or an accident, and he has intimate knowledge about her marriage and her life. Coincidentally or perhaps not, her very existence begins to unravel at the same time, his luring dark secrets becoming her new obsession. Feeding her morsels of information, he teases her with his attention, elusive presence, flowers, and enticing video clips, sending her important messages yet never telling her the whole truth, leaving her baffled and restless. But there is something she picks up on fast. Nothing is what it seems. Not in her life. Not in his life. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is a dark story of love, betrayal, unexpected twists, titillating secrets, and luring mystery that spans over four books, all available in the store. The first three books end in a cliffhanger. The books need to be read in order. The story is complete in the last book. HEA at the end of the series.
