Storm Soaked Strangers
Ten years ago, Ava St. Jude survived the worst night of her life in which her dignity was stripped, her body was violated, and her sense of self shattered forever. It also left her with a dark fantasy she's never been able to fulfill...until today.
Enter The Company, a shadow organization that can cater to any fantasy for a price, no matter how specific. When Ava hires them, she's expecting revenge. She's expecting ecstasy. She's expecting to relive that fateful night from long ago, only this time with a happy ending.
In order to have those things, she must submit mind, body, and soul to The Company's process. But with each passing minute, Ava begins to suspect hers isn't the only fantasy being fulfilled tonight, and The Company may know more about what she truly needs than she does.

A Dark Story Of Redemption!
WOW!! Dark Encounters... Dark Redemption is more accurate. A truly tragic and devastating display of childhood bullying unfolds throughout a dark revenge fantasy roleplay. With plenty of surprising secrets revealed along the way, this is a sinful experience that you won't be able to put down until you finish the story. The few typos that I noticed are easy to overlook and don't take away from the story. It's a perfect standalone story, even though it's a part of a series. This is a great choice read for fans of Dark Romance, Revenge Fantasy, Drama, Thriller, Menage/Throuple/Polyamory Romance, Second Chance Romance, Kink Fantasy and Multiple Partner Erotica stories.

I received an ARC of this book and I’m so glad I did—it was amazing.
From the first page, I was hooked. The story was so easy to get into, and I didn’t want to put it down. The characters felt real, the writing flowed well, and it kept me turning the pages.
There were moments that really stayed with me. Can’t wait to read more from this author!

I wasn't sure what to expect, but I absolutely loved this book. I loved that there was a twist all throughout the book that you are given hints about. I love the amazing happy ending. I could only wish for a fairy love story like this one, lol!!

I'll be honest, I don't have much experience with dark romance, but if it's all like this, I think I'm hooked. I really liked how dark and brooding it was overall, and the thriller aspect of it was really tense and exciting. I felt for the character, wanted her to get revenge, and loved the revenge she got. Felt like I was living a little vicariously through her, thinking back on my own bullies.
I'm also curious to read more in this series. Prynne says she plans to have this be ongoing standalone novellas, which sounds really cool. Just little contained "dark encounters," as the series title suggests. Reading about the next one on her website, it sounds bonkers in the best way.
Really enjoyed it. Would recommend.

I received an ARC copy of this book and WOW! So tense and dark and brooding. I loved the way the story unfolds, how secrets are revealed. The backstory is well paced and I loved how little beats start to make sense the more we learn about her past and what she had to go through to get to this day.
I have read all of Prynne's work because I never know what I'm going to get and it always keeps me on my toes in the best way. The fact that this is a series of standalone stories, and the next one sounds SO different from this one already? I CANNOT WAIT!
So good. And it's a shorty. I gobbled it down in one sitting. Would recommend.

I wasn't quite sure what to expect reading this one, but I certaninly wasn't disappointed!
A tale featuring our FMC getting revenge on her high school bully, and two MMC who were the PERFECT book boyfriend - what a winner.
The smut was well done, and inserted to the story at the right points, not just for spice value.
And it actually had a story that was explored and opened out on the pages as we read. It felt like it was a worthwhile read.
The little twists all throughout the book kept my attention hooked, and the ending was just perfect for the way the plot had gone.

I'm an ARC reader for this book and I highly recommend it! What are your fantasies? - The Company delivers. Loved the present day and flashback use with a bit more of the puzzle laid out each time. Strong FMC who gets her justice, MMCs that are what every book boyfriend should be, no cliffhanger and great spice when it fits the story and not just to be smut. A surprise bonus revealed - more stories from The Company to come! Can't wait to read them.

This is a bite-sized erotic thriller. That's all it claims to be, and I admire that she states that upfront. It opens up such a world of possibilities for future installments.
What I loved: the tension, the actual juicy-juicy revenge made me want to SCREAM in frustration and triumph, and those two hot guys who are hot on her heels? I WISH this sort of service existed. I'd be so tempted to use it.

I'm an ARC reader for this writer and I gotta say...this was a total blast to read. Intense and dark in some places and then there's a whole mystery element that really pulled me in too.
And I don't know about you but it scratches that itch to see people who've hurt you in the past get their come uppance.

Loved the idea...
3.5 stars if I could. I like the concept of the book but there are too many unanswered question for me. Also the cover shows 4 mask so I thought there was 4 MMCs and there aren't.

Scary, titalating and so intriguing. This was so erotic. One night So horrible, she can never regret; she can never recover emotionally. Then, her saviors rescue her in a most unusual way. Very HEA.
