by S a McEwen

Clara Black isn’t looking for love. Working by day as a therapist and by night as an exotic dancer, intimacy is…not her greatest strength. But her guarded heart is thrown into confusion by the magnetic stranger who keeps showing up in unexpected places. Lucas Evans is everything she doesn’t trust. Oozing confidence and sex appeal, he leaves women scattered in his wake. Clara is determined to resist him. But one gut-melting kiss and her resolve falters. And soon she's falling for him, despite her reservations. But they’re both keeping devastating secrets. And secrets are hard to keep when you get close to someone. “Dark, mysterious, full of heated attraction. Wonderful characters. A storyline like no other. Well told. Very entertaining!” – ★★★★★ Amazon review “If you think you have this book figured out just by reading the synopsis you will be mistaken…[S.A. McEwen] is not a cotton candy, tie a story up in pretty satin ribbons HEA writer...the road she takes to the HEA is scattered with land mines, not well lit and wonderfully satisfying.” – ★★★★★ Amazon review “I loved everything about this book...This novel has quickly become one of my favourite dark romance reads ever! I cannot say enough great things about it! Go and read it for yourself today.” ★★★★★ My Slanted Bookish Ramblings “So far, this is the best fiction I've read in 2018, and even though it's early in the year, I'm predicting it'll be in my top 10 at the end of it.” – ★★★★★ Goodreads Review “An absolutely incredible story of self discovery, forgiveness and most of all love! An emotional read with a happily ever after!” - ★★★★★ Goodreads review “ I want more!!! I loved every dark suspenseful part in this book. 6 dark stars – WOW. How simply intriguing, twisted, dark, romantic, and suspenseful this book was. The entire premise of this book was so fascinating to me … The character development and the attraction between the two main characters was so intense…” ★★★★★ Amazon review
