TEMPTATION CAN BE IRRESISTIBLE. BUT IT CAN ALSO BE DEADLY…
“Let me ask you: if you received a message, and you had no clue who sent it, would you reply? What if you got more and more of them, and not just messages, either, would you reply then? But what if you knew exactly who it was – and you and he had unfinished business – what then? Would you be tempted? I was.”
Eva Sewell is struggling to manage her life: a troubled, on-off romance with her ex-husband, an intolerable work situation, and a tempestuous relationship with her sister. And all of it is made worse by the knowledge that her beloved dad is dying. When she gets a message from an unknown number, she’s almost tempted to answer it, just for someone to vent to. But she’s not stupid. She doesn’t reply to random strangers.
But the messages don’t stop. Who is it? Why do they seem to know so much about her? Are they watching her? As everything in her life begins to fall apart, she’s determined to have nothing to do with whoever it is. But anyone can slip up, can’t they? Especially if replying is secret, exciting. If it feels like you’re in a clandestine relationship. And Eva needs something in her life that she feels in control of. Maybe this is it.
Then, in one unexpected moment, she discovers who the mysterious messager is. And, once she knows this, resisting him is impossible. Because they have history – of the darkest kind.
This revelation sets off a chain reaction that takes her down a dangerous path of temptation, resurfacing guilty pleasures and dreadful memories that she thought she’d left behind. But, now he’s back in her life, guilt is the least of her problems. Submitting to everything he asks of her will mean she’s faced with choices no one should ever have to make.
How much danger can she handle, how much of her life is she prepared to destroy, to finally keep what she’s always wanted – the man at the end of the phone?
A twisty, dark and emotionally intense psychological thriller.
