On location 2005...The research for this book took place in Northern California--Jenner and Bodega Bay, along coastal Highway 1, and in Napa Valley. This thrilling suspenseful love story makes its debut in 2006.
The night unfolds as uneventful as any previous one; yet, best selling writer, Tess Simóne, has no idea that this night would conclude as anything but ordinary. From this moment on, her life will never be the same—being thrust into a world that not even her seasoned, story-telling imagination could dream up.
Tess now juggles two entirely different lives. She continues to marvel as an optimistically creative and successful writer by day, but now surrenders each night as a despondently captive sexual prisoner. Hopes of one day settling down with the man of her dreams quickly fades, as her faceless nighttime stalker dominates her intimately.
Theresa E. Liggins’ suspenseful paranormal, yet sensual romantic thriller follows this once liberated writer and her new love interest, Nolan Reynolds, as they fight a constant tug-o-war between desire and secret. These two people are romantically drawn together, yet inexorably torn apart in the worst ways, as Tess’ drama turns into a scene from one her own novels, complete with an ending she couldn’t have written herself.
