Anna Colin Beck knows all too well what can happen when things go wrongƒ‚‚"ƒ‚‚€ƒ‚‚"really wrong. So, she's spent the last several years living an extremely regimented life at home, doing everything she can to avoid subjecting herself to the torments of a germ-infested world. Everything must be just so, and when things don't go to plan, she punishes her own bodyƒ‚‚]ƒ‚‚€ƒ‚‚]and that still hasn't helped alleviate her pain.
After a chance meeting in a laundromat, she finds herself completely infatuated with another person, something that hasn't happened to her in a long time. Dr. Edward Denture is seemingly brilliant and magneticƒ‚‚]ƒ‚‚€ƒ‚‚]and in the blink of an eye, she's attending intense somatic therapy sessions as his newest client. The more he draws from her, the further their relationship grows, until it's crossed countless lines.
