Release Date: December 15th, 2013
Genre: New Adult Erotic Suspense Romance
“All my life, I battled with the knowledge I was twisted… fucked up to want something so deliciously dark—wrong on so many levels. But then slave fifty-eight entered my world. Hissing, fighting, with a core of iron, she showed me an existence where two wrongs make a right."
Tess is Q’s completely. Q is Tess’s irrevocably. But now, they must learn the boundaries of their unconventional relationship, while Tess seeks vengeance on the men who sold her. Q made a blood-oath to deliver their corpses at Tess’s feet, and that’s just what he’ll do.
He may be a monster, but he’s Tess’s monster.
Tears of Tess, Monsters in the Dark #1 - My 5 of 5 star Review
Review:
My Rating 5 of 5 stars
TEARS OF TESS was dark and delicious, but critics scoffed at
the “dark” label claiming it wasn’t dark enough – I disagree, but to each his
own. Author Pepper Winters kicks up dark
elements in the follow-up book, QUINTESSENTIALLY Q, leaving no question that
monsters really DO lurk in the dark – careful what you wish for.
Where TEARS OF TESS romanticized the dark elements in
relation to the themes of kidnapping, non-con and human trafficking,
QUINTESSENTIALLY Q took the romance and pretty much stomped it to
smithereens. The tone in
QUINTESSENTIALLY Q was decidedly different.
It was dark and emotional and real.
Tess’ demeanor went from that of a young woman searching for some
pizzazz in her sex life in TEARS OF TESS to a broken mess of nothingness in
QUINTESSENTIALLY Q. Although I missed
that fiery spirit Tess had in book one, I felt like QUINTESSENTIALLY Q was a
more realistic portrayal of how a person who has fallen victim to the sadistic
pleasures of others might actually behave.
And then, the emotionally invincible Q showed a side of himself I never
expected to see: vulnerability, sadness and a love so powerful that nothing and
no one could damage it.
The third and final book (I think) in the MONSTERS IN THE DARK
series is set for a 2014 release and I am anxious to discover how their story
will play out.
Enter to Win!
She loves to travel and has an amazing, fabulous hubby who puts up with her love affair with her book boyfriends.
Her debut book Tears of Tess will be followed with Quintessentially Q. You didn’t think Q could stop so soon, did you? Her other two titles, Last Shadow and Broken Chance will be coming soon.
