“Wow what a feast for the dark temptations of desire. From secret societies, to BDSM steam and sex-therapy, to healing and finding acceptance in your true self. Kate is a wonderfully flawed character who feels the same dislocation from life as so many of these readers do, and on her journey to make sense of her past, her traumas, her present and make herself whole again so she has a future – she stumbles onto the same path as Jack. Darling Jack. So many feels in this story.”

His temptation, her downfall

Eve spoiled paradise with one bite of a forbidden fruit. For me, it was one kiss by Jack Lawrence.

Since I was a little girl, my dreams have been plagued by visions that my mother insists are only a product of my wicked imagination: dark-clad men chasing me down the hallway, bent-necked women hanging from the ceiling, and bloody corpses discarded on the floor like broken toys.

She forbids me from asking questions about my birth father, won’t discuss my childhood memories, and my conservatory stepfather has banned me from going to the exclusive BDSM clubs owned by the Lawrences. My family wants me to be a good girl, but I’m not good, I never have been. I just don’t know where these urges come from.

When I stumble upon Jack Lawrence in the most unexpected place, he’s everything my mother warned me about – dark, dangerous, and dominant, a man cloaked in mystery and wealth, someone who reminds me of those men from my childhood. Although I know better than to play with fire, who can resist a dark, forbidden fantasy when it walks right up to your table and offers you everything you’ve ever wanted?

Thrill of Fear is the first book in The Harpies. This is a dark secret society, spicy, contemporary forbidden romance with gothic elements and scenes of a violent and explicit sexual nature. Meant for a mature audience only.
